CALL FOR NOMINATIONS FOR EDITORS

*Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy *is seeking an editor or an
editorial team to serve a term of five years, beginning July 1, 2018*.
*The journal
issues a call for nominations for editor(s) every five years in order to
consider new proposals and directions for the journal, and to give others a
chance to be involved.  All proposals will be judged on their merits. We
encourage self-nominations as well as nominations of others.
Self-nominations and nominations of others are due no later than March 1,
2017.



*Hypatia* is the preeminent journal for feminist philosophy; it has a wide
international readership and a robust institutional subscription base.  It
serves as an important resource not only for philosophers, but for all
those interested in philosophical issues raised by feminism, including
interdisciplinary women’s and gender studies scholars. The journal
publishes work covering a wide range of philosophical traditions and
topics, and therefore we encourage nominations (including self-nominations)
of editors who have diverse interests and expertise in sub-areas and
methodologies of Philosophy and Feminist Studies.



Candidates should have a record of publication in feminist philosophy, and
some previous editorial experience is desirable. *Hypatia *is committed to
the inclusion of the scholarship of feminists of color, trans feminists,
transnational feminists, queer feminists, and disabled feminists.
Individuals constituting an editorial team need not be members of the same
institution.  Candidates (or at least one member of an editorial team)
should be at an institution with graduate students in Philosophy or
Gender/Women’s Studies who can serve as managing editors and editorial
assistants.  Candidates who prefer to co-edit and/or construct an editorial
team should indicate how they would share the work of the journal.
Candidates should also indicate what kinds of institutional support they
expect to receive.





If you are nominating yourselves, please send CVs for each member of the
editorial team. Also, please include a statement of interest that indicates
how the work of editing the journal will be shared and where the journal
will be housed, as well as brief statements regarding your previous
relevant experience and the directions in which you would like to take
*Hypatia*. If you are nominating others, please send a letter briefly
stating your reasons for nominating them, as well as their
institutional/postal addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses. We
will contact them and request that they provide the same materials as
self-nominators should they wish to be considered.



Timeframe for the search process: After reviewing the nominations, the
search committee will invite a subset of nominated editors or editorial
teams to submit initial applications, which will then be due by May 1,
2017. These initial applications will be reviewed and a subset of
applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal. The full proposals
must be sent by October 1, 2017.



Instructions for preparation of proposals will be posted on the Hypatia
website.
