Call for Contributions: MP Online Feminist Journal Fall Issue

Post date: 12 April 2012
Deadline: 31 July 2012

MP: An Online Feminist Journal is seeking submissions for its fall issue. We seek ­scholarly articles, book reviews, and short essays that engage any aspect of feminism or feminist scholarship. ­Interdisciplinary and international submissions are highly encouraged. We recently have ­published ­essays about the body, the academy, religion, girls’ studies, work, activism, and agency.

Maximum length for manuscripts is 30 double-spaced pages. Submissions may be in any accepted ­academic format such as MLA, APA, Legal Bluebook, or Chicago Style but must be consistent ­throughout and carefully edited. Submissions must not be published elsewhere already. Also include a ­current copy of your CV and a 50-word bio.

For best consideration for our fall issue, please submit your materials by midnight, July 31, 2012, to submissions@academinist.org. You are welcome to submit after that date, though those submissions will be considered for our Spring 2013 issue or later.
