Feminism and Gender Studies:

Feminist Theory and Gender Studies Section (FTGSS) of the International Studies Association.
"In 1990, a small group of women convened a meeting to inaugurate a new ISA section devoted to feminist theory and gender studies. At that time, recorded membership in the section stood at 23 members. After numerous years of finding feminist analysis missing from or marginalized in most ISA panels and discussions, Christine Sylvester and V. Spike Peterson worked to create a new section."
