Gender, Place and Culture Welcomes New Managing Editor: Dr. Lena Grip

Today’s post is written by our new Managing Editor, Dr. Lena Grip. Thank you Dr. Grip for taking over this very important role. Please join us in welcoming her!

***

In November last year I got the question if I could be interested in taking over as Managing Editor for Gender, Place & Culture. What an honour! It is a position that has been held by scholars I have read and got inspired from, ever since I first started my academic studies. And now the question was turned to me. I just couldn’t say no. However, my spring semester was already more than fully scheduled with teaching, research, running a conference, etc. and the GPC editor Margaret Walton-Roberts kindly accepted to step in as Interim Managing Editor during the first half of the year, when Pamela Moss ended her commission. This also gave me time to prepare the transition and I’m very thankful to both Pamela and Margaret for all their help and support, I honestly don’t understand where Pamela have found the patience for all my questions and queries the last few months.

My previous experience as a journal editor comes from the Swedish Journal for Gender Studies [Tidskrift för Genusvetenskap], where I was one of two editors during 2015-17. Even though the process is much the same; receiving manuscripts, finding reviewers, communicating with reviewers and authors, proof reading, publishing, etc, Gender, Place & Culture is of course a total different kind of assignment. Except for handling manuscripts, running a well-renowned journal like GPC is so much more, and I think that I have only just begun to scratch the surface of things that I am now the head of. The most central and basic value of the journal is to generate a supportive and intellectually engaging environment for publishing feminist work in geography, and I see my main role as a facilitator for continued discussions on this important topic, through distribution of research on these issues from all around the world. I am thankful for having the experienced editors Özlem Altan-Olcay, Katherine Brickell, Kanchana N. Ruwanpura and Margaret Walton-Roberts by my side, and also Marcia England and Nathaniel Lewis as Book Review Editors, and Lisa Dam as the Social Media Coordinator. The staff at Taylor and Francis has been a great help in the transition, and I know that they will continue to be important. I am also grateful that Lindy Marks has agreed to continue as Editorial Assistant.

However, the journal is nothing without its authors! I therefore invite you all to submit your work to GPC to keep up the strong tradition that has made GPC what it is today. 25 more years – here we come! Please don’t hesitate to contact me if of you have any questions about the journal, the review process, aspirations for publishing, etc. I will do my best to assist!
