CALL FOR PAPERS no. 26 (2026) : gender

Junctures: The Journal for Thematic Dialogue no. 26 (2026)  :  “gender”

Junctures is a multidisciplinary double-blind peer-reviewed journal that seeks to highlight the contradictions, complexities and coherences that underlie the theme for the current call. We encourage discussion across disciplinary and cultural boundaries, through scholarly research articles as well as narratives, commentaries and interventions that sit outside conventional academic contexts.

The theme for the forthcoming issue is “gender.”

We welcome proposals for articles on queer, transgender, gender-non-conforming or gender-diverse identities, feminisms and masculinities, intersectionality and Indigeneity, or any issues pertaining to gender within and across disciplines.

In the first instance, please submit a title and abstract of between 500 and 750 words by 31 March 2026. Please also provide a short biography including your institutional affiliation.

We will let you know if your abstract has been accepted by 14 April 2026.

Article submissions will be due 30 June 2026, with peer review process to be completed by the end of July and articles completed by the end of August.

Junctures articles are typically between 4000 and 6000 words, but for this issue we are also happy to publish longer articles (up to 10,000 words) if the topic and quality of writing support this length.

The journal will be published online (open access) in November 2026 with a limited run of print copies available for purchase.

Guidelines for submissions can be found here: https://www.junctures.org/index.php/junctures/about/submissions.
