Identities in Transition: Gender, Culture, and Society in the 21st Century

02-03-2024

Introduction:

In a rapidly evolving world, issues of gender, culture, and society are in a constant state of transition. These changes reflect a diversity of experiences and perspectives that challenge traditional norms and promote new ways of understanding identity in the 21st century. The journal "Social Review" invites scholars, researchers, practitioners, and activists to contribute original articles that explore the complexity of transitioning identities in the contemporary context. We seek work that addresses the dynamics of gender, cultural transformations, and social challenges from a variety of disciplines and methodological perspectives.
