Journal Descriptions

Women’s Studies Quarterly (WSQ) is one of the longest‑running interdisciplinary journals in feminist scholarship. Established in 1972, it provides a forum for critical perspectives on women, gender, and sexuality across disciplines. Each issue is thematic and guest‑edited, combining scholarly essays with creative writing, poetry, fiction, and visual art. This unique blend makes WSQ not only a rigorous academic journal but also a cultural platform that bridges theory and practice. The journal addresses contemporary debates in feminist theory, queer studies, and intersectionality, while also engaging with historical perspectives on women’s roles in society. WSQ is widely indexed and accessible through Project MUSE and JSTOR, ensuring global reach for researchers, educators, and students. Its mission is to foster dialogue across academic and activist communities, making it a vital resource for those committed to feminist inquiry and social justice. By publishing both established and emerging voices, WSQ continues to shape the evolving landscape of women’s, gender, and sexuality studies.
