Journals
Feminist Dissent is a peer-reviewed online journal that brings together critical insights to our understanding of the relationship between gender, fundamentalism and power. It aims to fill a gap in the existing literature by creating space to examine the multi-faceted links between historical and resurgent religious fundamentalism and gender in an international perspective. Edited by a Collective, the journal is designed to create space for feminists who believe that certain approaches currently dominant in academic, activist and popular discourses (including but not confined to feminist theory, anti-racism, postcolonialism, postmodernism and poststructuralism) have occluded the challenges that women and other dissenters face in the face of rising fundamentalist movements globally.
