Frontmatter and Editorial

Abstract

In lieu of an abstract, here is the first paragraph of the editorial:

The last year was a year of transition for Gender Forum: An Internet Journal for Gender Studies, which is now entering its twentieth year. As the new general editor of Gender Forum, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Beate Neumeier, the founding editor and outgoing general editor of the journal, for her decade-long services to Gender Forum. I am in awe of what you and your editorial teams have created over the last twenty years and honored that you trust me to continue your work. I would also like to thank Sarah Youssef for her tireless work as managing editor of the journal during the years prior to my arrival and for your willingness to share your expertise during the transition between editorial teams. Your work, like the work of many managing editors, review editors, and student assistants before you, has been invaluable for keeping the journal afloat. Your dedication to the idea behind the Early Career Researchers Issues, in particular, has been an inspiration. I hope the new team can continue the work of Gender Forum in your spirit.
