CSSLRV Director Myrna Dawson was Current Sociology’s Sociologist of the Month this October. Sociologist of the month campaigns are monthly campaigns on social media initiated in 2015 to highlight the work of different sociologists from around the world, both established and more junior, who have published with Current Sociology, the official journal of the International Sociological Association. During the period of their feature, their article is available as free access. This is one way among others to draw attention to the work of diverse sociologists and promote sociology more generally. Co-authored with Michelle Carrigan, Dawson’s article was entitled Identifying femicide locally and globally: Understanding the utility and accessibility of sex/gender-related motives and indicators.
