Dignity: A Journal of Analysis of Exploitation and Violence, 2021

Dignity has changed its name to Dignity: A Journal of Analysis of Exploitation and Violence. Now, we are broadening the scope of our publication to include articles and discussions on topics that are crucial for us to address through our scholarly publishing. We want to publish articles that report on and analyze the following topics, such as: Reproductive violence and exploitation, such as surrogacy, forced abortions, forced pregnancies, sex-selected abortions, and baby selling; Traditional harmful practices, such as female genital mutilation and child marriage; Domestic violence, revenge attacks on women, and femicide; Forced labor, economic exploitation, and property theft; The debate about biological sex and gender identity, and sex-based rights versus gender based rights; The experiences of migrant, immigrant, and refugee women and children; and The growth of authoritarian political and social movements and how they are impacting women and girls’ rights and lives. Please consider submitting an article to Dignity (https://digitalcommons.uri.edu/dignity). Donna M Hughes, Editor-in-Chief (dignityjournal@gmail.com)
