[ecrea] Porn Studies - Special Issue on Audiences CfP

Dr Sharif Mowlabocus (University of Sussex) and Professor William Leap 
(American University) are editing a special issue of Routledge’s new 
Porn Studies journal, scheduled for publication in May 2015 (issue 6). 
The issue will explore the multiple positions from which different 
audiences engage with pornographic material, and will include articles 
on research methods, political-economies of pornography and discourses 
of porn consumption.

At the present time, the editors are seeking proposals for papers that 
specifically address the theme of women as consumers of pornography. 
Women have historically been underrepresented in discussions of porn 
consumption and porn audiences and we would like to use this special 
issue to address this imbalance. Please note that, for this reason, this 
is a specific call and we are only seeking papers that explore the 
experiences of female porn audiences / consumers.

 The publishing schedule is set as follows:

January 17th 2014 – Abstracts and biographies due.

February 3rd  2014 – Editor’s decision on submission.

July 31st 2014 – Articles submitted to editors

October 15th 2014 – Reviewers reports returned to authors

December 22nd 2014 – Revised articles submitted to journal for typesetting

May 2015 – publication of article in 6th issue of Porn Studies.



Abstracts should be no longer than 350 words and should be accompanied 
by a biography (200 words max) of the author(s). We welcome 
critically-engaged analyses that are underpinned by relevant theoretical 
frameworks. Final articles to be no longer than 6,500 words.



Please send abstracts and biographies to (s.j.mowlabocus /at/ sussex.ac.uk) by 
January 17th 2013.
