Or does this perspective omit and erase critical aspects of history? The scarcity of women in the architectural canon compels us to ask: why is this the case? What were \u2013 and are \u2013 the institutional gatekeepers that systematically excluded women, people of colour, and other marginalized groups from the proverbial drawing board, nowadays and in the past? Recent research into these questions has uncovered a wealth of historical information that challenges the supposed absence of women and other marginalized groups from architectural history and theory. Feminist critiques of urban planning and development from the 1980s and 1990s exposed how the built environment often failed to accommodate everyday practices tied to female roles. This failure was largely attributed to the lack of female representation in planning structures. But feminism is about more than simply the presence of women. It is a critical lens and theoretical framework through which the nature and impact of gender inequality can be explored. As such, feminist architecture challenges entrenched norms and reimagines how spaces are designed and inhabited. Starting from this premise, the Yearbook of Women\u2019s History aims to examine how the built environment was shaped within and beyond the confines of architects&#8216; offices. How have local authorities, clients, building firms, activist organizations, and knowledge institutions been influenced by feminist ideas, intersectional perspectives, or decolonial thought on architecture? How have feminist contributions influenced the development of buildings, districts, and entire cities? And in what ways were such perspectives excluded or ignored?<br \/>\nFor the 44th issue of the Yearbook of Women\u2019s History, guest editors Lidewij Tummers and Mar\u00eda Novas invite contributions that explore feminist architectural practices in past and present \u2013 whether through built projects, design approaches, or biographies. How have feminist frameworks (re)shaped our understanding of architecture and urban planning? How were women involved in the making of houses, institutional buildings such as asylums, schools, prisons, monasteries, shops, markets, governmental buildings? Whose stories remain untold, and what can we learn from them? <a href=\"https:\/\/yearbookwomenshistory.wordpress.com\/2025\/02\/24\/cfp-44-feminism-and-the-making-of-the-built-environment-from-past-to-present\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more &#8230; (Web)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yearbook of Women\u2019s History; Guest editors: Lidewij Tummers and Mar\u00eda Novas (Web) Proposals by: 01.05.2025 Gender theorists and activists often highlight the historical notion that \u201ccities are made by men.\u201d But is this entirely true?
