The fourth issue of Annual Review of Critical Psychology is hot off the print!

The production of the journal as a collaborative project is represented in the diversity of the editorial team - Barbara Biglia from Catalunya/Italy, Jude Clark from South Africa/UK, Johanna Motzkau from Germany /UK and Alexandra Zavos from Greece/UK - who have collated a wide range of resources to illustrate the many possible yet different discourses and practices available or claimed by and for feminist and critical social mobilizations.
