Gender, Work & Organization (GWAO)

Gender, Work & Organization is the first gender equality journal dedicated to gender relations, the organization of gender and the gendering of organizations. For 30 years, the journal has published multi-disciplinary, high quality empirical research on gendered power relations, identity, and inclusion. We welcome studies covering issues of current interest, including the gender pay gap, flexible work, career patterns, women on boards, and access to leadership positions. Issues of critical importance as Gender, Work & Organization moves forward include feminist knowledge and practice, feminist philosophies and praxis, diversity, intersectionality, transnational, postcolonial, and decolonial feminisms, feminist ecology, postfeminist humanism/posthumanist feminism, embodiment, affect and organising, gendered power, resistance and activism, gender and global labour markets, critical analyses of neoliberalism, postfeminism, femininities and heroic versus post-heroic leadership approaches. Launched in 1994, Gender, Work & Organization was the first journal to provide an arena dedicated to debate and analysis of gender relations, the organization of gender and the gendering of organizations. Since then Gender, Work & Organization has published multi-disciplinary, high quality qualitative empirical research on gendered power relations and identities in the study of work and organization exploring issues of inclusion and exclusion. It has also published quantitative work guided by critical epistemologies on issues such as the gender pay gap, flexible work, career patterns, women on boards and access to leadership positions. Issues of critical importance as Gender, Work & Organization moves forward include feminist knowledge and practice, feminist philosophies and praxis, diversity, intersectionality, transnational, postcolonial, and decolonial feminisms, feminist ecology, postfeminist humanism/posthumanist feminism, embodiment, affect and organising, gendered power, resistance and activism, gender and global labour markets, critical analyses of neoliberalism, postfeminism, femininities and heroic versus post-heroic leadership approaches embracing perspectives, theories and learning are welcome. Gender, Work & Organization welcomes theory-driven papers and empirical papers that go beyond mere description, using data as a means of advancing, or reflecting upon theory. GWO publishes papers that are sophisticated in theoretical, epistemological and methodological content; mature in their engagement of sociological and/or gender theories; engaged with a broad body of international scholarship and highly developed conceptually. As such, we aim to provide a forum for papers that go beyond a traditional oppositional-binary or categorical concept of gender. Papers which are underdeveloped, represent ideas under development or redrafted conference papers will be declined, as will papers which are purely or largely atheoretical, empiricist or descriptive. Paying particular attention to engagement with and contribution to theory, submissions to GWO should be original in content and style (not under review, accepted, or published elsewhere) and be not more than 9000 words. Exceptions to word count /length of paper may be made at the discretion of the editorial team in the case of papers reporting qualitative research.
