Letter from the Editor
The Journal of Research on Women and Gender is pleased to offer a special fall issue of papers originally presented at a conference on sustainability in the spring of 2011 at Texas State University. The articles included here represent differing perspectives on gender and sustainability. Anne Deepak of Texas State University uses a postcolonial feminist social work perspective that she writes is a new theoretical perspective that changes the discussion of population growth and sustainability. Nicole Jackson of Ohio State University discusses the conflicting relationship between Black women’s health status and reproductive freedom. Lijun Yuan of Texas State University and Yun Zhou of Peking University both talk about issues affecting Chinese women. Yuan writes that gender issues in aging have not been discussed and proposes a way to meet the needs of elderly women in China. Zhou looks at the Chinese “one-child policy” and the gains of Chinese women because of that policy.
