Submissions are invited for a reader on women in Louisiana politics. Essays should cover the political activity of women, broadly defined, in Louisiana. Essays emphasizing formal political participation may focus on the executive, judicial, or legislative branch of government or the role of women as voters and candidates in local, state, or national elections. Essays emphasizing non-traditional political participation may cover a range of topics and/or issues that Louisiana women have organized around. Articles may be theoretical, historical, or empirical in approach. However, all essays should foreground gender as a category of analysis and seek to explain its intersection with race and/or class.
The deadline for 10- to 15-page, double-spaced articles including a 200-word abstract is July 31, 2003. For more information, please contact Rose M. Harris, Louisiana Center for Women and Government, Nicholls State University, P.O. Box 2062, Thibodaux, LA 70310; phone (985) 448–4770; fax (985) 448–4771; email: lcwg-rmh@nicholls.edu.
