Our Current Issue
“Pleasure and Danger: Sexual Freedom and Feminism in the Twenty-First Century,” a special issue of Signs, examines how the so-called sex wars have shaped contemporary discussions around sexual pleasures and dangers. The articles collected in the issue demonstrate that feminist scholars are pushing far beyond tiresome splits and divisions. Representing a wide range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary locations, articles in the issue address the Barnard Conference itself, literary and artistic representation, national and transnational sexual economies, and sexual violence and the law.
