Authors and readers of law, activism, social sciences and the arts are gathered to promote dialogue on sexual and reproductive rights and rethink nature in a new way. 
To support a theme as complex as it is necessary, minimal and elegant graphics and a thick, embossed cardboard cover.

ISSUE 3
The third issue of The Against Nature Journal is a critical review of the role that medical knowledge has played in shaping common interpretations of what is considered "natural".
Historically, the theory and practice of medicine have considered non-procreative sexual desire to be pathological. Along with religion and law, medicine is well established as a moral authority that distinguishes between the natural and the alleged deviant. In light of this, the third issue of the magazine opens with a writing on reproductive justice and queer procreation.
It is followed by a focus on trans and intersex policies and presents a section oriented towards "plural healing" and the need to decolonize health care practices and institutions.
