This editorial is seen as a comment on the on-going concern expressed in several Anglophone geography journals about the hegemony of Angloamerican production and its role in formulating the terms of international academic debate. We examine the extent to which Angloamerican dominance is equally true with regard to feminist geography, by looking at how/whether Gender, Place and Culture (GPC) deals with this bias. Finally we forward some suggestions for positive action towards enhancing the international character of the journal. ¿La hegemonia Anglosajona impregna Gender, Place and Culture? Esta nota editorial trata de un tema que en la actualidad es motivo de preocupacion en algunas revistas anglosajonas, la hegemonia de la produccion anglosajona en geografia y su papel crucial en la formulacion de los debates academicos internacionales. A traves del analisis de la revista Gender Place and Culture, se discute como esta situacion se da tambien en la geografia feminista. Finalmente, se proponen una serie de acciones positivas para potenciar el caracter internacional de la revista.
