Abstract
Over the last 20 years, gender relations and how they are experienced, represented and put into practice have undergone deep changes. It is vital to understand this pro-cess more deeply and clearly, especially with regards to the power and control dynamics involved, and within the scope of Portuguese-speaking countries.In the backdrop of these reconfigurations and interests, the Revista Lusófona de Estudos Culturais (Lusophone Journal of Cultural Studies) publishes in its 5th issue a set of contributions of renowned researchers and junior researchers alike, from all over the world (United Kingdom, United States of America, Brazil and Portugal). Additionally, it offers the Portuguese readers an opportunity to read the works of Rae Connell, Jasbir Puar and Sue Thornham in their native language
