In the realm of sociological inquiry, the exploration of dialogic communication has emerged as a pivotal aspect of understanding feminism and gender dynamics, particularly concerning marginalized individuals and the notion of the "other woman." Recent sociological discourse has spotlighted dialogic societies—characterized by open, inclusive dialogues—as essential for propelling feminist narratives and encouraging tangible societal transformations. Among the challenges noted are entrenched societal norms that impede inclusive conversations and the subsequent impact on gender equality. Studies have shown how enhanced dialogic interactions can significantly shift perceptions and behaviors regarding gender roles, yet gaps remain in comprehensive understanding and application of these dialogic interactions across diverse social strata.This Research Topic aims to delve into the evolving dynamics of dialogic societies within the feminist context, focusing on marginalized groups and the "other woman." The primary objective is to unravel the sociological intersections at this juncture, assessing both the hurdles and prospects they present. We intend to scrutinize the role of open and collaborative dialogues in deepening the comprehension of gender issues and advancing societal change. The pursuit is to not only extend dialogues beyond mere conversation but also to influence actionable outcomes that address pervasive gender disparities.The scope of this topic is twofold. Firstly, it delimits the discussion to the impacts and interactions within dialogic societies as they pertain to feminist movements, particularly those involving underrepresented groups. Secondly, this call for papers seeks contributions that illuminate the complex interplay between dialogue and feminism through various lenses:• Case studies that showcase successful dialogic practices resulting in social change.• Empirical research on the barriers to and enablers of effective feminist dialogues.• Theoretical analyses that redefine or challenge existing concepts of dialogic feminism.• Studies focused on co-creation and collaborative efforts in addressing gender inequalities. By examining these dimensions, this Research Topic aims to significantly contribute to the ongoing discourse on achieving an inclusive, equitable dialogic society and advancing gender equality.
