It seeks to dismantle hegemonic methods and methodologies that often exclude queer perspectives, voices, and experiences. The issue interrogates heteronormativity, challenges binary thinking, and explores the fluidities of identity, power, and knowledge production in qualitative research practices.<\/p>\n<p>We invite scholars to engage with various critical qualitative methods (e.g., counternarratives, composite stories, autoethnographies, critical queer discourse analysis) to incorporate a variety of queer critical frameworks. Submissions that foreground BIPOC experiences, epistemologies, and methodologies\u2014particularly those led by BIPOC scholars or community partners\u2014are strongly encouraged. Spanning diverse educational contexts, the issue amplifies new and decolonial ways of knowing and creates spaces that disrupt exclusive ways of thinking that often shut out those who are typically marginalized. Authors are encouraged to embrace innovative forms of representation\u2014including autoethnography, arts-based methods, performative writing, and critical reflexivity\u2014that trouble academic conventions and open new and decolonial possibilities for ethical and epistemological inquiry.<\/p>\n<p>Authors should consider tackling the following questions:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>What does it mean\u00a0<b>to \u201cqueer\u201d<\/b>\u00a0qualitative methodologies?<\/li>\n<li>How can\u00a0<b>queering<\/b>\u00a0qualitative methodologies dismantle\u00a0<b>and transform\u00a0<\/b>traditional hegemonic ways of knowing?<\/li>\n<li>How can queering qualitative methods\u00a0<b>amplify<\/b>\u00a0marginalized voices, experiences, and perspectives?<\/li>\n<li>How can queering qualitative methods expand\u00a0<b>the potential within and beyond\u00a0<\/b>a variety of educational spaces?<\/li>\n<li>In what ways can queering qualitative methods be used to\u00a0<b>dismantle<\/b>\u00a0other forms of oppression?<\/li>\n<li>How might queering qualitative methodologies work to\u00a0<b>center<\/b>\u00a0BIPOC perspectives,\u00a0<b>dismantle<\/b>\u00a0intersecting systems of racism and heteronormativity, and\u00a0<b>reimagine<\/b>\u00a0educational research practices?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Timeline<\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>Title and Abstract (250 words) Due Date:\u00a0<\/b>December 15, 2025<\/li>\n<li><b>Acceptance Date:<\/b>\u00a0January 9, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>Full Manuscript (max 8,000 words excluding references) Submission:<\/b>\u00a0June 30, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>Internal Review of Manuscripts by the Guest Editors:\u00a0<\/b>July 1-30, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>Manuscripts sent out for External Review:\u00a0<\/b>August 1, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>External Reviews Due:<\/b>\u00a0October 31, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>Manuscript Acceptance\/Rejection\/Revision Notification:<\/b>\u00a0November 6, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>Revisions Due Date:\u00a0<\/b>December 31, 2026<\/li>\n<li><b>Publication Date:<\/b>\u00a0January\/February 2027<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To submit your title and abstract, click\u00a0<u><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSf8xJHhV9nAH_y_P8PqOOk-56zw5THeDr-ffCLOAVm2gPexHQ\/viewform?usp=sharing&amp;ouid=111128272055451010303\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\n<p>For inquiries, contact: Edgar D\u00edaz (<u><a href=\"mailto:edgar.diaz@usu.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">edgar.diaz@usu.edu<\/a><\/u>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are pleased to announce a call for papers for a special issue of the International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education titled:\u00a0Queering Qualitative Methodologies to Dismantle Hegemonic Narratives.
