Forum

Queer-Feminist Science and Technology Studies Forum is a collection of contributions by friends and members of AG Queer STS. The plan is to compile at least one edition per year for continuity, unless a burning issue urges us to slide in an extra edition. The contributions will be of random style, theoretical, empirical, reflections, insight into work in progress, reviews – most importantly queer. If you would like to suggest a contribution to Forum, just write us.

You can download all of our Issues below. Or on our OSF-site.
