Gender Politics Research Group Book Panel – reflections on writing as a feminist practice

Category
Discussion
12 May 2025
11:00 - 13:00

Venue

SPS Chrystal Macmillan Practice Suite 1.12

Description

Several members of our GPRG community have recently published books in PIR, including edited volumes, and we want to come together to celebrate their achievements. Rather than a traditional book launch, our gender politics panellists will discuss the feminist process of writing and editing, focusing in particular on the joy, love, pitfalls, and challenges. Since many of these books were co-authored, the panellists will also share their experiences with collaboration and explore the ethical and practical dimensions of feminist co-authorship.

 

Our panellists:

Prof Meryl Kenny, Gendering Party Politics: Feminist Institutionalist Perspectives (forthcoming, 2025) [co-edited with Elin Bjarnegård], OUP

Dr Hemangini Gupta, Experimental Times: Startup Capitalism and Feminist Futures in India (2024), University of California Press

Prof Sarah Childs, Designing and Building Feminist Institutions (forthcoming, 2025), OUP

Dr Annika Bergman Rosamond, The Politics of Feminist Foreign Policy and Digital Diplomacy (2024) [co-authored with Karin Aggestam and Elsa Hedling], Palgrave Macmillan – Open Access

 

Introductions: Prof Ben Rosamond

Chair: Prof Fiona Mackay (PIR)

Location:  SPS Chrystal Macmillan Practice Suite 1.12

 

This panel discussion will be very useful for PhDs, postdocs, and other colleagues. Refreshments will be provided.
