Kvinder, Køn & Forskning er et akademisk, fagfællebedømt multidisciplinært tidsskrift, som har til formål at udgøre et samlingssted for udvekslingen af kønsforskningens forskningsresultater og -diskussioner. Kvinder, køn og forskning er et dansk tidsskrift med nordisk forankring og internationalt sigte: Tidsskiftet søger at være platform for bredden og dybden af dansk kønsforskning og samtidig at præsentere nordiske og internationale tendenser og resultater. Disse undersøges i selvstændige artikler såvel som i temabårne særnumre. Kvinder, Køn & Forskning publicerer artikler, essays, boganmeldelser og andre tekstgenrer, hvis udgangspunkt er kønsforskningens teorier, metodologier og temaer i et dansk/nordisk perspektiv. Redaktionen vægter således bidrag, som indgår i en kvalificeret og indsigtsfuld dialog med kønsforskningens metoder og historie, herunder feministiske teoridannelser og diskussioner. Kvinder, Køn & Forskning modtager gerne bidrag, som tager udgangspunkt i feministiske epistemologier og som vægter kønsforskningens intersektionelle perspektiver. Det vil bl.a. sige forskning og forskningsformidling, som yder særlig opmærksomhed til den måde, hvorpå køn samvirker med andre kategorier som fx race/racialisering, etnicitet, klasse, handicap, seksualitet, alder og lignede. Tidsskriftet prioriterer forskning, som centrerer stemmer og erfaringer fra sociale positioner, der traditionelt marginaliseres. Kvinder, Køn & Forskning giver plads til publicering af endelige forskningsresultater såvel som metodiske og teoretiske undersøgelser og eksperimenter. Tidsskriftet inviterer både etablerede og yngre forskere til at bidrage til feltet. Vi ønsker at styrke den tværdisciplinære diskussion mellem kønsforskere og værdsætter derfor bidrag, som søger at tilgængeliggøre forskningsresultater for kønsforskere uden for skribentens egen disciplin. Tidsskriftet ønsker at kvalificere og styrke en dansk og nordisk terminologi og samtale om nordisk såvel som international kønsforskning. Kvinder, køn og forskning modtager derfor artikler og essays på dansk, norsk og svensk såvel som engelsk, men hvor det er muligt prioriterer vi bidrag på skandinaviske sprog.

Review time and acceptance
Review time from article dates manuscript dates registered with PubMed · to
Too few articlesOnly 1 articles from the last 24 months carry both submission and acceptance dates, too few for a median
Only articles that were accepted and published are counted, not the time spent on rejected manuscripts, so this usually runs longer than a publisher's "time to first decision".
