New Article Published
Anushka Mitra, in her latest article, “Unveiling Gender Constructs and Body Politics in Mahasweta Devi’s “Draupadi,” analyzes the character of Dopdi Mejhen from Mahasweta Devi’s short story “Draupadi” to explore the territory of women’s subjective identity in contrast to the social definition of ‘woman.’ It incorporates feminist and existentialist arguments to highlight women’s existence as a ‘series’ of their individual experiences.

This article discusses the profound impact of World War II on women's lives on the home front in the present-day Republic of Slovenia. The world war brought substantial changes to the lives of civilian populations. Women's roles became increasingly crucial on the home front, especially within the private sphere of the family. Here, they not only continued to perform their traditional tasks but also took on new responsibilities that were demanded of them in these challenging circumstances.

New Article Published: “Challenging Stereotypes: A Conversation Analysis Approach to Students’ Narratives about Gender”
By Chiara Facciani, Post-Doc Fellow, University for Foreigners of Siena, Italy.
The article discusses the critical role of early education in preventing gender-based violence (GBV). It highlights a study where class seminars were used to address gender stereotypes and GBV in Italian middle schools. The study, involving 112 twelve-year-olds across five classes, was documented through 600 minutes of video recordings. Analysis of these recordings showed that, despite some narratives reinforcing stereotypes, the majority encouraged equal gender relations. This research underlines the positive influence school programs can have on students’ perceptions of gender roles and violence.

New article: “Female Monstrosity, Body and The Exorcist (1973)”
By Prachi Kambli, Assistant Professor of English, Ramnarain Ruia Autonomous College, Mumbai, India.
The paper explores the connection between horror and the female body, highlighting the common portrayal of women as villains in various cultures. It examines how these representations reflect societal fears and attitudes towards femininity. The study argues that the female body is often seen as ‘other’ and that horror films frequently depict women as subjugated or brutalized. It also considers the societal effects of depicting female ghosts and the dynamics between male and female characters in horror settings. Specifically, the paper delves into the portrayal of horror and monstrosity in “The Exorcist,” analyzing how the film portrays terror through the female victim’s body, moving beyond traditional analyses to uncover deeper meanings.

New article published: "“We will treat you well because you are helping our nation”: Migrant Wives and Functionalist Visions of Belonging in South Korea"
By Joshua Allen, PhD student, Global Gender and Sexuality Studies, University at Buffalo.
The article discusses the rise in cross-border marriages in South Korea over the last three decades, with non-Korean women marrying Korean men. These marriages have accounted for a significant portion of annual marriages in the country since 2005. The author examines the changing societal norms and state policies that have influenced the perception and treatment of migrant wives. The article identifies three “functionalist visions of belonging” that have shaped the legitimacy of migrant wives in South Korea:
Ethnonational: Migrant wives were judged based on their ethnic similarities or differences with Koreans.
Social-Confucian: Their acceptance was based on their ability to fulfill traditional gender roles within Confucian society.
Biopolitical: They were valued for their potential to contribute biologically by bearing children and culturally by raising future Korean citizens.
These visions reflect the evolving expectations and roles assigned to migrant wives in South Korean society.
