>
> As part of our British Academy funded project, 'Investigating young 
> people's sexual cultures: an exploratory project with researchers, 
> agencies and educators', 2009-2010, we are editing a special issue 
> of Sex Education journal to be published in February 2011.
>
> The project aims to examine ways of developing research on young 
> people's sexual cultures within the context of a 'sexualized' and 
> media-saturated culture. It aims to explore the theoretical, ethical 
> and methodological issues at stake in this area of work in order to 
> establish proposals and guidelines for future research and plan for 
> well-informed, thoughtful and innovative research that will develop the field.
>
> We are interested in articles on theoretical, disciplinary, 
> institutional, methodological and ethical issues; on the knowledge 
> gaps in understanding the ways that young people think, talk and 
> learn about sex; on the broader context in which media literacy, sex 
> education, citizenship and self-governance are emphasized; and on 
> specific research projects and good practice in research into young 
> people's sexual cultures.
>
> We are looking for articles of 6,500 words including references. We 
> would need first drafts by March 19, 2010 and finished articles by 
> July 15, 2010.
>
> If you are interested in contributing to the special issue please
