Appel à contributions de la revue Women & Music: A Journal of Gender and Culture pour son vol. 31 « Global Queer/Trans Nightlives ».

« This special issue of Women and Music will both contribute and respond to recent scholarship on queer/trans nightlife in music and performance studies (Maus et. al 2018; Barz & Cheng 2019; Khubchandani 2020; Livermon 2020; Adeyemi, Khubchandani, and Rivera-Servera 2021; Garcia-Mispireta 2023; Leslie Santana 2025) by exploring the sensorial, musical, and political affordances of queer/trans nightlife on a global scale. By engaging music studies’ recent global turn, we consider the circulations of racialized and gendered agency in local and global contexts to decenter normative subjectivities across economies of music, sound, and performance. Attention to the global as a framework highlights the peripheralization of alternative definitions of queer/trans, performance, intimacy, and temporality across multiple geographies. By learning from those who party on the peripheries, this special issue will reveal how nightlife affords capacious, multiplicitous, and otherwise definitions of queer/trans, shedding light onto the complexities of identity formation and maintenance through musicking and performance. »
