📣 Call for papers for the Edited Volume “Islamic Feminism: From Theory to Praxis”

Deadline extended to March 15, 2026!

Please share widely!
This is a call for papers asking for submissions to an edited volume titled Islamic Feminism: From Theory to Praxis.

Submissions may include traditional research articles, auto ethnography, case studies and creative works. We welcome discipline specific and or interdisciplinary approaches. The deadline for submissions is March 15, 2026. Submit proposed title, contact information, and abstract to Inaash Islam at iislam@holycross.edu

Today we received our most recent impact factor scores and rankings for Sociology of Race and Ethnicity, the journal I co-edit with B. Brian Foster.

SRE's 5-year impact factor score of 3.9 places us as the #1 social scientific journal for race scholarship anywhere in the world.
