Abstract
Abstract: In 2017, Revista Estudos Feministas completed 25 years of publication. Its 10, 15 and 20 years as an academic journal created and edited by women's groups linked to teaching, research and feminist activism have yielded many texts in commemorative editions. REF, the result of a voluntary collective work, “is an indexed, interdisciplinary journal of national and international circulation, the mission of which is to publish articles, essays and reviews that present consistent and innovative theoretical reflections (...) broadening the frontiers of academic debates in the field of feminist and gender studies and implementing the practices of women's movements”. The 25th anniversary of REF provides us with a new opportunity to reflect on its editing processes, on the themes of the articles, essays, dossiers and debates produced, as well as on the geographical places and disciplinary formations of their authors, with their diversified epistemological affiliations, now supported by a database that has been organized on the magazine.

This round table gives continuity to one held at Doing Gender 10, in 2013, when those who came together to speak about Feminist Publications included our much-missed companion Zahidé Lupinacci MUZART (2014), who reported on her experience as the publisher of Editora Mulheres; Mara Coelho de Souza LAGO (2014) for the Revista Estudos Feministas, Lucila SCAVONE (2014) with her study about Brazilian feminist and gender-related academic journals; María Luisa FEMENÍAS (2014), for the journal Mora from Argentina; and Claire MOSES (2014), who spoke about Feminist Studies, a pioneer journal in this field
The organization of these spaces of dialogue and narratives about the activities, interactions and reflections involved in the publishing of feminist writing and writing about gender, has become a tradition among us since the Revista Estudos Feministas – which had proposed an online portal to bring together the publications in this field – organized the I Encontro Brasileiro de Publicações Feministas in 2002 and the I Encontro Internacional and
II Encontro Nacional de Publicações Feministas in 2003, both of which were held in Ponta das Canas, one of the beautiful beaches on Santa Catarina Island
Summary
II Encontro Nacional de Publicações Feministas in 2003, both of which were held in Ponta das Canas, one of the beautiful beaches on Santa Catarina Island. Its publication was taken on by the collective of feminist researchers at UFSC with considerable fear: it was a great responsibility to maintain the quality of the journal’s initial proposal, as conceived by its creators in southeastern Brazil and what they were able to achieve Since it came to us, REF has always been linked to the Doing Gender Seminar – it was after Doing Gender 3: Gender and Health, in 1998, that we received the offer to publish it here in Florianópolis. REF and other journals have accompanied and analyzed the attacks on rights to recognition, respect for differences of race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexualities, of the universal right to citizenship and a decent life with access to education, healthcare, work, housing and equality This history has been experienced with suffering and reported on in recent years of the journal. These questions are inherent to and stem from the contemporary times of globalization
