NORA - Nordic Journal of Feminist and Gender Research

Aims & Scope

NORA is a multi-disciplinary international journal of feminist and gender research, with a distinct Nordic edge.

Its purpose is to provide a Nordic perspective on an international research field and to make feminist and gender research located in and/or relevant to the area visible internationally.

As an English-language journal, NORA is committed to situating and mapping the breadth and depth of Nordic feminist and gender research today, and to promoting transnational and transdisciplinary dialogue.

As the leading multi-, inter- and transdisciplinary journal of gender and feminist research in the region, NORA publishes articles in a wide range of disciplines, using diverse theory, data and methods.

Whether conceptual, theoretical, empirical or methodological, submissions should participate in, or reflect on, Nordic issues, discussions and research interests in the globalized world.

NORA welcomes research articles, review articles, position papers, essays and book reviews that present emerging trends in feminist and gender studies or thematic overviews of major theoretical perspectives and research fields.

Submissions should be of interdisciplinary interest and combine international dialogues with materials, theory formations or topics of northern interest and relevance.

NORA welcomes submissions that discuss intersectionality and complexities of gender, also written from outside of the Nordic region.
