Call For Papers: Special Issue – #Queerness as Strength- Journal- University of Warwick

The marginalisation of LGBTIQA+ people remains a purposeful act of successive governments, institutions and individuals. The outcome has been poorer health outcomes, limited political participation, higher incarceration rates, and increased inequality and violence globally.

However, amidst this crisis LGBTIQA+ people have also created and maintained ways and means of survival. While being forced to the margins and away from the centre, queer theories and practices have emerged that challenge not only our own marginalisation but also consistently queery and question why human life is how it is. Whether surviving epidemics, persisting for equality in the law, or resisting assimilation, the power of LGBTIQA+ people is rarely collected in and across higher education disciplines. And, although often erased, a rich and vibrant life lives on in zines, the arts, the development of technologies and medicines, and in the pursuit of joy so each generation lives a life better than the one preceding it. Truly, queerness is a strength of which many should be enviable, and it deserves to be in the highest echelons of knowledge as any other discipline or practice.

This special issue aims to collect experiences, thoughts and approaches that apply queerness as a strength across any and all disciplines of practice. Ultimately, this issue aims to offer answers to the question, ‘how can the power of queers benefit wider society?’ From medicine to mathematics, to community organising and pedagogies, through to technologies and the arts, queer strengths have always improved how people live, work, connect and persist.

Paper themes may include, but are not limited to:

• Queer informed improvements to methods and methodologies
• Queer approaches to strengthen data collection and analysis
• The application of queer perspectives and experiences into and across disciplines traditionally void of queer strengths
• Commentary and ethnographies on lived/living experience of the queer researcher/practitioner/student
• Experiences written from global majority country citizens
• Indigenous and First Peoples perspectives
• Perspectives of those who live or practice an intersectional queer experience
• In/Justice in research, education and/or other institutions
• Survival, pain, trauma, rejection and/or loss

To further the discourse and propagate related knowledge Monash University has partnered with the University of Warwick’s interdisciplinary open-access journal Exchanges (exchanges.warwick.ac.uk) to produce a special issue based around these themes. The issue, anticipated for publication in 2025, aims to contain a range of papers from scholars around the globe.

Call for Articles - Shaw and Ireland- SHAW: The Journal of Bernard Shaw Studies

 

SHAW 46.1 (June 2026): SHAW AND IRELAND

In an “interview” in The Evening Sun, 9 December 1911, Bernard Shaw remarked that Ireland “ . . . is producing serious men — not merely Irishmen, you understand, for an Irishman is only a parochial man after all, but men in the fullest international as well as the national sense — the wide human sense.” Bernard Shaw considered himself one of those same “international Irishmen,” though his native identity and strong connection to his homeland was often overshadowed by his international outlook. Moreover, Shaw’s opposition to violence and abhorrence of nationalism often put him at odds with those fighting for Irish Independence. While Shaw frequently used the world stage to comment on Ireland and the Irish, many of his peers and critics have misinterpreted Shaw’s global views and tongue-in-cheek satiric mode as an indication that he was anti-Ireland or at least, indifferent to his homeland and his birthright. Thankfully, Bernard Shaw’s Irish identity has been firmly re-established in the last fifteen years both in the field of Shaw Studies and Irish Revivalist Studies. Peter Gahan’s Bernard Shaw and the Irish Literary Tradition (2010) and Audrey McNamara’s Bernard Shaw: Reimagining Women and Ireland 1892–1914 (2023) bookend more than a decade’s long campaign to restore Shaw to his rightful place within the Irish Dramatic Canon. As is the case with Shaw, though, there is always more to say on the subject. This special issue will celebrate Shaw’s relationship to Ireland and his Irish identity through his marked international perspective. We welcome articles on any aspect of Shaw’s international perspective, especially those which speak to his interest in identity, gender, feminism, socialism, nationalism, and internationalism. Please submit essays by 1 March 2025. Inquiries and proposals should be directed to guest co-editors Audrey McNamara bernardshawindublin@gmail.com and Justine Zapin justine.zapin@gmail.com.

SHAW: The Journal of Bernard Shaw Studies is the official publication of the International Shaw Society, which seeks to “provide a means for those interested in the life, times, works, and career of Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw and his circle to organize their activities and interests, exchange information and ideas, and promote an interest in Shaw worldwide.”

Call for Paper Queer Intersectionalities: Understanding South Asia- Publisher: Routledge , Edited by Nizara Hazarika & Namrata Pathak

Critical essays are invited for a book on queer representations in literature from South Asian countries. The local and allied global developments in queer literature in the regions and subregions of South Asia encompass diverse themes which bring to the fore the intricacies of political activism and demand for rights and policies cutting across myriad socio-cultural forums and settings. Emphasizing on how local, 'situated' and specialized knowledge is produced and how they impact operations of power in multi layered South Asian societies, the proposed book would throw light on shared and shifting conversations on/of queer communities across diverse disciplines, fields of knowledge and areas.

The present volume that falls under the series, “South Asian Literature in Focus” would be a compilation of critical essays by scholars, academics, activists, writers, and artists aiming to foreground a whole spectrum of queer experiences in the South Asian regions and subregions notwithstanding the special emphasis on specificities and particularities that such a mode of enquiry demands. The book would be discussing the experiential realities of queer population, the spatial transgressions and transformations within, across and beyond the spaces and terrains in South Asia, both concrete and abstract, by discussing the potential of subversive forces at the heart of same-sex/trans and myriad affiliations of varied kinds. The documentation of queer urban spaces, and the allied disruptions of the 'paradigmatic' in the everyday narratives is one of the significant aspects of the book. Also, a few essays will spin a weave of interesting classroom experiences, the practice of teaching a queer text, its absorption and reception at both the individual and collective level. Partly, the book would try to capture the intricacies of such 'pedagogical wars', and what actually goes into the process of queering academia, what form of knowledge is excluded, rejected and discarded in the process and why. Moreover, a few essays would be discussing the new emergences in the digital turn by putting the queer experience in the intersections of fluid, virtual identities, cyber culture and robotics. Also, there would also be a segment on the ecocritical offshoot of queer studies in the wake of anthropocene and certain overlapping environmental concerns and green-earth theories. Again, a part of the book would also focus on the effect of trauma, discrimination and rejection of the queers in general and the disabled LGBTQA++ people in particular, and also the need to create a shared and sustainable space based on equality and equity. The intention here is to unlayer the complex dynamics behind care and sustenance of the queer disabled in the context of daily stigmatization. Queer and popular culture would be another vital segment of the book which aims to throw light on the current aspects of queerness as evidenced in popular cinema, performance art and music. Some of the sub-themes that the volume seeks to explore are:

• Queer Emergences in South Asia: Queer Writing, Queer Politics
• Intersectionalities and Queer Identity in South Asia
• Forging Queer Spaces: Marginality, Liminality, Transgression and the Production of Spaces
• Representation and Performativities of Queerness in South Asian Literature and Culture: the Visual and the Digital Turn
• Queer Literature and Activism in South Asia
• Queer Ecology and Environmentalism
• Bodies Without Borders: Mapping Queer Desire
• Academia and Queerness: The Pedagogical Wars
• Queer Disability Studies
