Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies

Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies is a triannual peer-reviewed academic journal [1] which figures among the earliest publications in the field of feminist and gender studies in the Unites States[2]. First published in 1975, at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Frontiers takes pride in its extensive, interdisciplinary agenda concerned with the intersections of the different systems of oppression that produce and reproduce social inequalities and injustices[3]. From 2012 through spring 2017 the journal was edited at Ohio State University, with Guisela Latorre and Judy Tzu-Chun Wu serving as editors-in-chief.[4][5] As of July 2017 its editorial team is based at the University of Utah's new School for Cultural and Social Transformation[3], and the editors are Wanda S.
