Dear all,
We are delighted to announce the launch of feminists@law, a new,
peer-reviewed, online, open access journal of feminist legal scholarship.
You are warmly invited to visit our website at
http://journals.kent.ac.uk/index.php/feministsatlaw/issue/current
and to pass on this email and our details to your networks.
In the first issue
The first issue features an article on the association between feminist and
open access movements by Carys Craig, Joseph Turcotte and Rosemary Coombe;
reflections by Drucilla Cornell on the 20th anniversary of the publication
of Beyond Accommodation: Ethical Feminism, Deconstruction and the Law;
thoughts on current and future agendas for feminist legal studies from
Africa, Europe, North and South America and Australia; and a video of a
roundtable discussion with Brenna Bhandar, Julia Chryssostalis, Elena
Loizidou and Janice Richardson on the 'past', 'present' and 'future' of
feminist legal scholarship.
About the journal
feminists@law aims to publish critical, interdisciplinary, theoretically
engaged scholarship that extends feminist debates and analyses relating to
law and justice (broadly conceived). It has a particular interest in
critical and theoretical approaches and perspectives that draw upon
postcolonial, transnational and poststructuralist work. We intend to publish
material in a range of print and multimedia formats and in English and other
languages. We are committed to an international perspective, to the
promotion of feminist work in all areas of law and justice, and to making
that work widely available through open access publishing. We plan to
publish two issues per year, but each issue will be built incrementally,
meaning that new articles will be posted as soon as they are ready for
publication.
Register your interest
Registration with the journal will enable you to submit articles for
consideration, to receive automatic email updates when new issues are
published, and to indicate an interest in acting as a reviewer for the
journal. You can also receive journal updates via RSS, Facebook and Twitter.
We hope you will enjoy reading the first issue, and will be keen to comment
on the articles, to register on the site, and to submit articles for
publication. We would also be interested in any feedback you may have on the
journal.
Best wishes,
The Editors
