Essays are sought for the first volume in the Hampton Press book series, Transnational Feminisms, that investigates current concepts of transnational or global feminisms, and the attention and critique such concepts have receive within public, scholarly, international, creative and performative discourses.

The editors seek a broad-ranging set of investigations on areas including, but not limited to, ethics and transnational feminisms, women and leadership, diverse enactments of feminist activism, and transnational politics of difference. Authors will engage with multiple constructions of global feminism that assume common concerns and similar shared lived experiences by all women in current times. Essays that interrogate intersections of gender, class, nation, ethnicity, and the tendencies of globalization on women’s roles, identities and communities are encouraged.

Please send queries and/or abstracts to Noemi Marin, nmarin@fau.edu or Lara Lengel, lengell@bgsu.edu by October 15, 2009. Final essays should be submitted by January 1, 2010.
