> 19.5 PREGNANCY AND THE MEDIA
>
> The broad expansion of the post-feminist media landscape of the past couple of decades brought about an increased visibility of spectacularised and idealised ideas of pregnancy – a romanticised "new momism" (Douglas and Michaels, 2004). Alongside these romanticised discourses, though, exist numerous examples of mediated pregnancies that sit outside of such glamorised and perfect representations of pregnancy. This context has also opened up new networked spaces for people to seek and offer support online in relation to pregnancy, as well as spaces to search for or share (self-)representations of pregnancy. The editors of Commentary and Criticism invite short essays that critically consider pregnancy and contemporary media. Possible topics might include, but are not limited to:
>
> · Media representations of pregnancy
>
> · Pregnancy in the media industries
>
> · Online users and communities' uses of digital media related to pregnancy
>
> · Celebrity pregnancies
>
> · Mediated pregnancy in relation to diverse intersectionalities including: LGBTQ+, age, race, class, ability
>
> · Audiences' consumption of mediated pregnancy
>
> · Pregnancy in the context of health communication or health policy in the media
>
> · Onscreen pregnancy and genre
>
> · Neoliberalism, pregnancy and media
>
>
> The Commentary and Criticism section of Feminist Media Studies aims to publish brief (~1000 words), timely responses to current issues in feminist media culture, for an international readership. Submissions may pose a provocation, describe work in progress, or propose areas for future study. We will also consider book and event reviews, as well as contributions that depart from traditional academic formats. We encourage all submissions to strategically mobilise critique to also offer a productive contribution to both feminist politics and media studies. Submissions must go beyond mere description in order to be considered for publication in Commentary and Criticism.

#CfP special Issue of of The Journal of #CriticalPsychology, #Counselling and #Psychotherapy #JCPCP to honour the many contributions of #TodSloan

Special Issue of The Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy
Call for contributions
A Special Issue of The Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy Guest Edited by David Fryer (d.fryer@uq.edu.au) will be published in September 2019 with two objectives: first, to honour the many contributions to critique of Tod Sloan (1952-2018); second, to provide a forum where the work on the issues Tod Sloan championed can be continued and developed.
Tod Sloan championed work in so many areas it is impossible to specify them all in a call for papers but, as an indication, contributions which tackle any of the following – and related issues – with which Tod engaged, will be welcome: capitalist modernity; coloniality; crisis of the modern psyche; critical psychology; critical social theory; decolonisation; desymbolisation; globalisation; grassroots activism; hyper-individuation; ideology; intersubjective / ideological processes; Latin America (learning from and with); liberation praxis; obstacles to participation in social transformation; political and historical miseducation; poverty; progressive social movements; repressive de-sublimation; resistance; social change; social justice; social relations of domination and oppression; social responsibility; sustainability; work-related suffering.
Aims and Scope of The Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy: "JCPCP is a peer-reviewed journal which values personal experience above professional boundaries and doctrinal jargon. It provides a forum for ideas, experiences and views of people working in the psychological world and those who use psychotherapy or receive psychiatric services. The journal encourages a critical, reflexive view of psychology and counselling and is a constant challenge to orthodoxy. Our contributors reflect on their work and experiences in therapy, in relationships and in institutions. The journal embraces philosophical, radical and scientific perspectives in its analysis of psychological, psychiatric and psychotherapeutic systems" (from inside the journal).
Guidelines to contributors for JCPCP: "When considering submitting a paper to The Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy authors need to follow the following guidelines: Length (4000 words MAX including refs), summary (25 words MAX), brief sentence for author biog/biogs. Please check the references before submission and do not include complicated diagrams. The paper should be critical i.e., does it use a recognized perspective to critique PSY in its various guises and does it abjure medicalized descriptions of conduct e.g., ADHD, depression etc. If there is a suggestion for how to do things better, is that suggestion humane and does it avoid the pitfall of assuming that there is something wrong with people who are referred to services? Authors should avoid jargon (except when critiquing labels), sexist and racist terminology, and shouldn't cluster people (e.g. "the" elderly) when describing those who receive services. Submissions will be sent for review if these guidelines are followed. Authors should receive a response in less than six weeks"(taken from: https://www.pccs-books.co.uk/downloads/Guidelines_to_contributors_for_JCPCP_-_2016.pdf )
The deadline for contributions (for the September Special Issue) is July 1st 2019.
Please feel free to discuss potential contributions in advance with the Guest Editor, David Fryer (d.fryer@uq.edu.au) to whom submissions for review should be sent.

Für die Disability Studies ist die Unterscheidung von individueller Beeinträchtigung (impairment) und gesellschaftlich ausgrenzender Behinderung (disability) zentral.Behinderung wird nicht durch die Beeinträchtigung, sondern als durch diejeweiligen gesellschaftlichen Umstände verursacht verstanden. Aus diesemForschungsverständnis heraus legen die Disability Studies besonderenWert darauf, dass behinderte Menschen selbst forschen oder als Lai/innenpartizipativ an Forschung beteiligt werden. In dem Themenschwerpunktsind sieben Beiträge versammelt, um theoretische und methodo(olog)ischeAuseinandersetzungen sowie empirische Beiträge aus Psychologie und angrenzenden Disziplinen und Arbeitsfeldern vorzustellen und so jüngereEntwicklungen und die gegenwärtige Lage der Disablity Studies im deutschsprachigen Raum zu kartieren.Die Print-Version dieser Ausgabe kann über den Psychosozial-Verlag bezogen werden. https://www.psychosozial-verlag.de/8248**Themenschwerpunkt-BeiträgeMichael Zander, Günter Mey: EditorialBirgit Behrisch: Was genau gilt es zu bewältigen?Hendrik Trescher: Inklusion zwischen Theorie und LebenspraxisRebecca Maskos: "Und dann hab' ich gemerkt, wie viel Spaß das auchmacht".
