Our special issue on Purpose, Power and Profit in Feminist Publishing now out with Women: A Cultural Review<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Is it possible to harness the market to achieve political and ethical goals? This bumper special issue of Women: A Cultural Review<\/em><\/strong> examines the interface between enterprise, ethics and activism in the cultural industries, with a particular focus on the publishing sector and on feminist interventions. Addressing a range of beloved periodicals and book publishing ventures, including Spare Rib<\/em>, Ms<\/em>, Red Rag<\/em>, Virago, Des Femmes, Honno, Sheba, Bogle L\u2019Ouverture, Onlywomen<\/em> Outwrite<\/em>, The F-Word<\/em>, The Vagenda<\/em>, Feminist Frequency<\/em>, Feministing<\/em>, The Establishment<\/em>, Crunk Feminist Collective<\/em> and Women: A Cultural Review <\/em>itself, articles explore the challenges and opportunities offered by the harnessing of enterprise and for-profit forms of cultural practice with goals such as gender equity, environmental sustainability, diversity and social justice. The article grew out of a symposium at the University of Cambridge in 2019 and also contain interviews with Bibi Bakare-Yusuf from Cassava Republic Press and Polly Russell from the British Library, on curating women’s business papers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
