Women, Gender, and Sexuality in the Arab World welcomes original scholarship on a wide range of topics from different perspectives, approaches, and methodologies that advance our understanding of gender and queerness in the Arab world. The series also welcomes contributions that historicize and contextualize the role of women and sexuality in films, graphic novels, works of fiction, and artistic expressions. Topics in the series include, but not limited to, queerness in the Arab novel, political violence in the context of gender, how gender relations are affected by displacement, encampment and return, the interaction between violence and its gendered representations in cinema, and the portrayal of gender in graphic novels. The series welcomes contributions of monographs and edited volumes from various disciplines related to women, gender, and sexuality in the Arab world.
