GPID Call for Papers

Michigan State University's Gendered Perspectives on International Development (GPID) Publication Series invites you to submit your manuscript for review.

Gendered Perspectives on International Development (GPID) publishes scholarly work on global social, political, and economic change and its gendered effects in the Global South. GPID cross-cuts disciplines, bringing together research, critical analyses, and proposals for change.

Our previous series, WID Working Papers (1981-2008), was among the first scholarly publications dedicated to promoting research on the links between international development and women and gender issues. Gendered Perspectives on International Development recognizes diverse processes of international development and globalization, and new directions in scholarship on gender relations.

The goals of GPID are: (1) to promote research that contributes to gendered analysis of social change; (2) to highlight the effects of international development policy and globalization on gender roles and gender relations; and (3) to encourage new approaches to international development policy and programming.

Individual papers in the series address a range of topics including gender, violence, and human rights; gender and agriculture; reproductive health and healthcare; gender and social movements; masculinities and development; and the gendered division of labor. We particularly encourage manuscripts that bridge the gap between research, policy, and practice. Previously published WID papers in the series can be viewed at http://gencen.msu.edu/publications/papers.htm and http://gencen.msu.edu/publications/archivedpapers.htm.

Gendered Perspectives on International Development Working Papers are article-length manuscripts (9,000-word max) by scholars from a broad range of disciplines. They disseminate materials that are at a late stage of formulation and that contribute new understandings of women and men's roles and gender relations amidst economic, social, and political change.
