LES Online is an innovative journal that aims to contribute to the study of lesbian issues and to promote lesbian equal opportunities and civil rights. Published semi-annually by LES – Discussion group on lesbian issues (www.lespt.org), this international publication aims to promote studies and scientific research as well as intervention projects and opinion pieces related to different aspects of lesbian issues. In addition to the Editorial Team, the magazine includes a Consultative Committee to ensure the quality of submitted articles review.
The Vol. 1, No 1 (2009) editorial started with a question:
“In our time the borders of gender categories tend to blur, while sexual orientation issues are being framed in enlarged terms, defying definitions such as lesbian, gay, hetero and bisexual. Whereas poststructuralist and queer theories suggest ways of rethinking gender and sexual identities, we propose a digital publication on lesbian issues. Is it relevant to have a publication exclusively dedicated to lesbian issues?” You can read more here.
LES Online welcomes academics, practitioners, and researchers interested in studies that incorporate lesbian issues to submit articles. This is a multi-language publication. Papers may be presented in Portuguese, Spanish, English or French.
Next number (June 2010) subject is: Lesbian Visibility – (in)visibilities and discrimination in different areas of life
