<p class="MsoNormal">The <i>Australian Feminist Studies</i> editorial team are delighted to announce this CFPs for a forthcoming special issue on Susan Stryker and Trans Studies. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Expressions of interest are sought for contributions to a planned Special Issue (SI) of <i>Australian Feminist Studies</i> devoted to the topic of Susan Stryker and transgender studies. <i>When Monsters Speak: A Susan Stryker Reader</i> (2024)
showcases the essential writings of Susan Stryker from the 1990s to the present; her scholarly work, her documentaries, zines, newsletters, etc.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This SI invites contributions that reflect on Stryker’s legacy and the vital role she played in choreographing the field of transgender studies. Grounded in historical studies of trans communities, social movements, and cultural production,
her writing has always been on the forefront of contemporary debates in trans thought and politics. Not only has she worked alongside many important trans studies scholars in the formation of the interdisciplinary field, but inaugurated a political and epistemological
shift in the way we think about bi-gender culture. Stryker’s work invites us to question presumptions about gender foundational to feminism, queer theory, medicine, modernity, governmentality, colonialisms, etc. New questions are being asked about subjectivity,
embodiment, desire, technology, power, affect and fantasy.<o:p></o:p></p>
