Call for Papers:
Special Issue of Feminist Media Studies

We are inviting submissions for a special issue of Feminist Media Studies on
"Women, HIV, Globalization, and Media". This project extends the important
contribution of feminist media scholars to critical perspectives on the AIDS
pandemic by bringing together work concerned with the structures,
inequalities, and geographies of globalization. We are seeking contributions
using a range of theoretical, topical, and methodological approaches and
working from a variety of perspectives on local-global relationships.
Subjects in which we are interested include, but are not limited to:
Different forms of media and their implication in a variety of institutional
and/or community settings
The relationship between women and gender as analytic categories
The relationship between media, activism, and public policy
Feminist methodological and analytic frames
Comparative approaches examining different national, regional, and/or
cultural contexts
Perspectives on migration, transnationalism, globalization, or other models
for examining women, HIV, and media within and across national borders
New technologies and issues of accessibility
NGOs, governments, international health organizations, or other
organizations concerned with AIDS policy
Issues of production, distribution, and reception
Feminist Media Studies is a major peer-reviewed journal, published by
Routledge and edited by Lisa McLaughlin (Miami University-Ohio) and Cynthia
Carter (Cardiff University-Wales). The journal offers a transdisciplinary,
transnational forum for researchers pursuing feminist approaches to the
field of media and communication studies, with attention to the historical,
philosophical, cultural, social, political, and economic dimensions and
analysis of sites including print and electronic media, film and the arts,
and new media technologies. Feminist Media Studies brings together scholars
and professionals from around the world to engage with feminist issues and
debates in media and communication. Its editorial board and contributors
reflect a commitment to the facilitation of international dialogue among
researchers, through attention to local, national and global contexts for
critical and empirical feminist media inquiry.
