"Feminist Critique" and Balkan Society for Theory and Practice Call for Submission

March 2018
"Feminist Critique" Journal together with Balkan Society for Theory and Practice (BSTP) invites submissions for a special issue "Breaking with Transition: Decolonial and Postcolonial Perspectives in Eastern Europe". The objective of this special issue is to articulate decolonial and postcolonial theories as they emerge out of Eastern Europe. We welcome papers that focus on decolonial and postcolonial feminism, queer studies, critical race theory, trans* studies, disability studies and anti-capitalist politics. We also welcome submissions that compare Latin American/Africana and Caribbean decolonial and postcolonial approaches to Eastern European emerging decolonial and postcolonial theories. We highly encourage submissions with a special emphasis on queer and feminist studies, political theory and practice to submit their work for consideration in this special issue. We welcome papers that investigate connections between race, gender, sexuality, religion, and class. We are open to all disciplines as long as submissions explore decolonial and postcolonial perspectives of post-socialist Balkan countries. Submission Deadline: September 1st, 2018. Submissions in both English and Albanian are accepted and all papers will be peer-reviewed. (Please scroll down for the Albanian version).

Call For Submissions to Special Issue of "Feminist Critique"

January 2018
We invite you to participate in a volume “Fucking solidarity: Western hegemonies and post-Soviet queer critique” in a special issue of the "Feminist Critique" journal. If you are a queer person*, have feminist views and you have something to say about post-Soviet space, and moreover, about solidarity and the “West”, then we are with you! And, maybe, you are also with us? With this special issue, we strongly build on and include the critique of people from the (real and imaginary) post-Soviet space, who live their lives queerly – through creativity, activism, academic writing or otherwise. (Available in Ukrainian, English, Russian).

New East European Journal of Feminist and Queer Studies "Feminist Critique" is Launched

September 2016

Krytyka Institute and Center For Culture Anthropology Studies are glad to announce the launch of the new scholarly peer-reviewed open-access journal Feminist Critique: East European Journal of Feminist and Queer Studies. The journal publishes papers on the broadest range of topics from scholars that have, however, feminist and/or queer-theoretical positionality. We consider feminism as more than debate about women's rights and gender equality, and we see queer theory as more than discussion on LGBT.
