Gate Keeper Journal
Vol. 1Issue 1

Reviewer's Manifesto

Academic publishing runs on gatekeeping. Too many ideas—especially from women—never make it past those gates. This journal is a space for women around the world to publish thoughts, drafts, and unconventional research without asking for permission. "They kept the gate. We keep the record."

How it works

Submit your work through the platform. Each submission goes through a light editorial review; if accepted, it will be published on the journal and opened for peer review and public discussion. Submissions are screened, but the goal is not to reproduce traditional academic gatekeeping—only to ensure the work fits the spirit of the journal.

Have your own ideas for community building?

We welcome your suggestions and contributions to make our academic community better.

本文以“好朋友恋爱后疏远了”这一普遍女性经验为切入点,提出一个核心问题:这种疏离是偶然的个人情感变迁,还是某种结构性的必然?在父权制的理论框架下,通过引入“姐妹情谊”理论及相关学术成果,本文论证:女性友谊的疏离并非单纯的情感问题,而是父权制分化女性、巩固异性恋婚姻制度的结构性后果。文章从婚姻制度的优先化、空间时间的剥夺、话语生产的挑拨三重机制,揭示父权制如何系统性地瓦解女性之间的情感联结;并通过对比男性友谊,进一步揭示这种分化的性别化特征。本文认为,看清这一结构性限制本身即是一种抵抗,女性情谊的韧性始终存在,疏离不是终结,而是被压抑的潜伏。

打开社交平台,我们常看到“女司机”“女博士”—— 却很少见到“男司机”“男博士”。这些加在职业前的“女”字,表面是区分性别,实则悄悄传递着一个信息:这个职业,默认是男人的。本文指出,这种“带性词”并非偶然,而是父权结构在语言中的投影。面对这一现状,本文对现下已有的两条路径进行分析,中性词汇需要恢复其本该具有的中性的样子。语言重塑,不是为了形式主义,而是为了让女性不再被当作“例外”,让她们的声音、贡献与诉求,成为社会默认的一部分。

Public space is often assumed to constrain violence through openness, visibility, and the presence of other people. However, scholarship in environmental science, environmental psychology, and environmental criminology suggests that publicness does not inherently produce safety, nor does it automatically generate effective surveillance, intervention, or accountability. Drawing on Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, routine activity theory, collective efficacy, and gendered analyses of space, this paper examines why publicness alone is insufficient to prevent gendered violence. It argues that openness does not equal surveillance, the presence of others does not necessarily create capable guardianship, and high mobility, anonymity, and weak governance can reduce the social and environmental costs of violence. Moreover, some forms of gendered violence are not simply impulsive acts, but performative enactments of domination carried out in and through public space. The paper concludes that what constrains violence is not publicness in the abstract, but the extent to which space is made governable through visibility, intervention capacity, and accountability.
