Dear JIWS authors: Our submission portal will not reopen until January 2025. We, the Editorial Team, apologize for this significant delay. We are working hard to edit special issues which have taken longer than expected to complete. We are confident, however, that we will be caught up by January 2025. Please note that we also do not accept article, essay, or creative submissions via email. One exception is that book and film reviews should be emailed directly to the book and film review editors listed in the Policies/Submissions Page (see sidebar). Please wait until January 2025 to submit any new manuscripts. We apologize for the delay and thank you profusely for your patience and continued interest in the Journal of International Women’s Studies! If you have research relevant to the issue of women in digital spaces, we are seeking articles for a special issue, Digital Feminism and Women's Engagement with Online Spaces.
