| Description | This issue consists of winning and short-listed entries from the Feminist and Women's Studies Association's 2004 annual essay competition. The competition was established to encourage a new generation of feminist scholars and to provide a prize and space for publication for student writing that isinnovative, interdisciplinary and grounded in feminist theory and practice. The winning essay in the postgraduate category was Karin Webster in which she examines critique aspects of the law relating to in vitro fertilisation (‘IVF’) treatment in the United Kingdom. In the undergraduate category Sara Howe won the prize with her essay in which she analyses the relevance of the 'motherist' politics of Argentina's Madres de la Plaza de Mayo to Latin American feminism. The five runners up in the competition were: '‘The Truth is a Thorny Issue': Lesbian Denial in Jackie Kay's Trumpet' by Ceri Davies: 'The Rationality and Femininity of Mary Wollstonecraft and Jane Austen' by Rachel Evans: 'Connections and Complicities: Reflections on Epistemology, Violence, and Humanitarian Aid' by Kiri Gurd: 'all the ways… ' by Natasha Lobo: and 'Uneasy Transvestism? Fashioning a Space for the Single Woman in Sex and the City' by Nicola Rodie. |
