- Description: The editors of Feminism and Psychology are delighted to introduce the first of our State of the Discipline papers. Twenty-five years have passed since the establishment of FandP. Significant work in feminist psychology and in feminisms relevant to psychology has been published both in this jour-nal and in others since (and before) the establishment of FandP. The range of topics that feminists in psychology consider has expanded and the reach of feminist studies has broadened. In light of the dynamic growth of the field, we believe that the time is ripe to establish what we have termed ‘State of the Discipline’ papers. We envision this series as a collection of occasional papers pertaining to particular topics or issues. What, we ask, is the current state of a specific topic within feminisms and psychologies? The State of the Discipline papers, written by scholars with a long-standing engagement with the topic, are neither empirical articles nor literature re-views. Instead, the papers are intended to apprise readers of the current state of knowledge about the topic, drawing on the literatures of both psy-chology and feminist studies. The articles: summarise key developments; point out areas of conceptual and methodological debate among feminist scholars; open up the topic to further scrutiny and new ways of understand-ing; and promote nuanced work in the field.

- Description: Feminism and Psychology (FandP) was launched in 1991 with a sense of possibility, enthusiasm and excitement as well as a sense of urgent need – to critique and reconstruct mainstream psychology (theory, research methods, and clinical practice). Thirty years have now passed since the first issue was produced. Thirty volumes with three or four issues have been published each year, thanks to the efforts of many. On the occasion of FandP’s 30th anniversary, we, the present and past editors, reflect on successes, changes and challenges in relation to the journal. We celebrate the prestigious awards accruing to the journal, its editors, and authors, and the significant contributions the journal has made to critical feminist scholarship at the interface of feminisms and psychologies. We note some of the theoretical and methodological developments and social changes witnessed over the last three decades. We highlight challenges facing feminist researchers in academia as well as international feminist publishing. We conclude that the initial enthusiasm and excitement expressed by the then editorial collective was justified. But, there is still much work to be done.
