Upcoming Thematic Series
Topic: Science
Proposal Deadline: May 10
Theme Description >

AN encourages AAA members to submit article proposals for one-time essays (not part of a thematic series) at any time, as well as proposals for a thematic series of your choosing.

We welcome proposals from current AAA members for In Focus commentaries, Teaching Strategies articles, Field Notes pieces, photo essays, photo features, news stories, interviews and more. Proposals for photo essays should also include up to five photographs (tiff or jpg), each with a caption and credit. Multimedia submissions are especially encouraged to take full advantage of the online capabilities at www.anthropology-news.org.

All accepted contributions will be published online at www.anthropology-news.org for up to 1,600 words for commentaries, with flexible space for supplemental online artwork and other supporting files. All published contributions will be archived on AnthroSource.

Selected essays published online will be featured in the newly reorganized bimonthly print AN. Selections will be determined based on a combination of reader feedback via online metrics (such as comments, shares, ratings and pingbacks) and editorial discretion.

To submit a proposal, please use the online AN Proposal System for your 300-word abstract, brief biosketch, and more at www.aaanet.org/customcf/an/login.cfm. 

Questions? Contact AN Managing Editor Amy Goldenberg.

Please note: Section News content suggestions and proposals should be sent directly to section contributing editors.
