Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are seeking submissions for a Special Issue on gender, environment, and development, broadly defined. Possible themes or topics might include space and place, the Anthropocene, sustainability, permaculture, reproductive justice, sexual violence, queer or trans politics, ecosexuality, environmental violence, environmental racism, food systems, political ecology, bio-piracy or bio-colonialism, indigenous perspectives, feminist materialisms, climate change adaptation and climate disruptions, refugees or migration, globalization, industrialization or deindustrialization, privatization schemes, conservation politics, transformations in work worlds, resource depletion, or extractive landscapes.
Articles can be theoretically or empirically driven, should be aimed at a broad, interdisciplinary audience, and should critically examine questions at the intersection of social/cultural formations and material conditions. Our aim is a collection that brings together a variety of emergent disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives on gender, environment, and development at global and local scales.
