Welcome to the 20th anniversary issue of the International Feminist Journal of Politics (IFJP). As we come to the end of our first year of editorial leadership, it is our great pleasure to welcome ...back the previous Editors of this unique journal to celebrate together the journal's achievements and to look forward energetically and together. We invited IFJP's previous Editors to offer their reflections and thoughts on their roles and time with the journal, beginning with the Foundational Team – Jindy Rosa (Pettman), Kathy Jones and Gillian Youngs, Rekha Pande (whose four-year term spanned both the first and second teams), followed by Catherine Eschle and Sandra Whitworth. Painfully absent is Teresia Teaiwa who served as an Editor (2008–2011), and so sadly passed away in 2017, who we remember with affection, and yet whose distinctive voice is a felt loss in these editorial reflections. An award-winning poet, beautiful writer, fierce pacifist, and passionate advocate for indigenous peoples, she is missed by so many across the globe. Our most recent Editorial Team, Heidi Hudson, Laura Sjoberg, and Cynthia Weber, conclude with their reflections on what they dub the “teen years” of the journal. We hope that these reflections illustrate the rich tapestry of thoughts, plans, hopes, fears, struggles, ambitions, and personal stories that have gone into and indeed continue to make the journal what it is today. They also provide historical context for what the current Editorial Team wishes for its future. Our vision for IFJP is a mix of the political, epistemological, and ontological. For an academic journal of global politics, feminism is not a luxury, a novelty, a temporary add on, an intermittent inquiry, or a pleasing accessory; it is an essential part of global politics and the disciplines that seek to understand it. It is both at the front and at the heart of what we do, how we do it, and why we do it.
...one group of new submissions will have become two: a set of papers to be taken forward for external peer review, and a set to be politely declined with expressions of regret. Outright fraud in the ...research we assess is rare, but an editor has to look out for a sentence that does not ring true, a conclusion that does not accord with the data, or an argument that does not hang together. A diverse and thoughtful editorial staff will be conscious of their role as gatekeepers and attempt to use it positively. There were, apparently, some genuine concerns about adulteration, but it is hard not to imagine some old fellow with extensive facial hair rattling from one cognac vineyard to the next under a thin veneer of scientific inquiry and a thick cloud of fumes.
Presents a listing of the editorial board, board of governors, current staff, committee members, and/or society editors for this issue of the publication.

Hilbert et al discuss the handover to a new editorial team. He states that the handover is always an interesting moment in the life of a journal. It involves balancing their own hopes and ideas for ...directing their field of scholarship with an appreciation of the hard work and intellectual insights of those who have gone before them. With an incoming editor in chief who has a long interest in tradition and interpretation, it is perhaps no surprise that they frame the process of balancing continuity and change in those terms. The incoming team brings a diversity of perspectives to the field, based on our international experience, areas of scholarship and research specialisms. Their points of view and spectrum of knowledge will help with their role as both custodians and ambassadors of Academy of Management Learning and Education.
