SUMMARY:AES 2026 Spring Conference Registration
DESCRIPTION:Register for the 2026 American Ethnological Spring Conference to take place May 1 – 3 at the University of Victoria\, British Columbia Canada.  \nSubmissions due January 15\, 2025. \nForty years ago\, George Marcus and Michael Fischer declared the 1980s an “experimental moment in the human sciences\,” urging anthropologists and other human scientists to rethink ethnography as a site not only of representation but of intervention\, invention\, and critique. Today\, in the context of ecological crisis\, political rupture\, technological transformation\, and epistemic reordering\, we ask: what does experiment mean today? \nThis conference invites scholars to reflect on experiment as both object and mode of anthropological inquiry. How do anthropologists collaborate\, compose\, and critique in experimental ways? What does it mean to “experiment” with form\, with method\, with theory\, or with the infrastructures of scholarly work? And how might experiment be situated—ethically\, politically\, historically—in relation to those whose lives and knowledge we engage? \nWe welcome proposals that explore (but are not limited to) the following themes: \n\nExperimental ethnography: form\, aesthetics\, genre\nCollaborative and co-creative fieldwork practices\nIndigenous experimentation\nSpeculative anthropology and future-oriented inquiry\nArchives\, objects\, and materiality as sites of experiment\nMultispecies and more-than-human experimentation\nInterdisciplinary knowledge creation and experiments across disciplinary boundaries\nExperimental publics: art\, activism\, and engaged scholarship\nTechnologies and infrastructures of knowledge production\nRisks\, failures\, and ethical entanglements of ethnographic practice\nExperiments in pedagogy and teaching anthropology\n\nWe encourage contributions in diverse formats\, including academic papers\, roundtables\, and workshops. \nJoin us as we ask: What does it mean to experiment in and with anthropology today? \nMore information \nRegistration & Submission Guidelines\nTo register and submit proposals for the conference\, the following steps need to be taken prior to the submission deadline: January 15\, 2025 \n\nRegister for the AES Spring 2026 Conference. You need to register for the conference before submitting your abstract.\nOnce you register\, you will receive a link to the submission form in your confirmation email. The submission form should only be completed by:\n\nan individual proposing a paper presentation\nthe organizer of a panel\, roundtable\, author-meets-critic\, or other organized panel structure. Panel participants do not need to fill out the submission form.\n\n\nInitial acceptance decisions will be communicated by February 1\, 2026\, and the program will be released closer to the conference date.\n\nFor inquiries\, contact AES.

SUMMARY:Society for the Anthropology of Religion (SAR) Biennial Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Society for the Anthropology of Religion (SAR) Biennial Conference will be held June 21-23\, 2025 at U.C. Santa Barbara. SAR welcomes paper and panel proposals on ALL TOPICS in the Anthropology of Religion. At the same time\, we do have a main Conference theme for 2025:  Religiosities\, Ecologies\, and Environmentalisms in the Age of the Anthropocene. \nKeynote Speaker: Prof. Ana Mariella Bacigalupo\, Anthropology Department at SUNY Buffalo; she will speak on indigenous religious environmentalism in Peru. \nFor the first time\, our SAR Biennial Conference will collaborate with the International Society for the Study of Religion\, Nature\, and Culture (ISSRNC) https://www.issrnc.org/. The last day of our SAR Conference (June 23\, 2025) will overlap with the first day of their Conference\, also to be held at UC Santa Barbara. SAR members are free to stay on and attend ISSRNC panel sessions with no extra charge. \nAnthropology needs to expand beyond the study of mere humans\, for the effects of climate change and the pollution of our life-sustaining biosphere are impacting all living species\, which are interdependent. This conference brings into play interpretive\, scientific\, and religious perspectives on forms of life in their cultural and natural environments. It promotes new ways of inquiring into the entangled relations between humans and deities\, ancestors\, ghosts\, animals\, insects\, plants\, and sacred natural formations such as rocks\, rivers\, and mountains. Across the globe\, how do different religious communities\, doctrines\, and institutions play a role in the age of the Anthropocene?

SUMMARY:2025 Society for Economic Anthropology 45th Annual Meeting: Sustaining Life between Popular and Illicit Economies
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 SEA meeting proposes to explore constellations of practices and strategies for sustaining life through activities that are not necessarily part of formal or even legal work and commerce. Our call seeks to explore the expansion\, heterogenization and transformation of these practices and economies\, questioning concepts of periphery\, marginality and exclusion in order to analyze processes of capital valorization in local and transnational spaces of dispute and conflict over legitimate orders. The conference will be held in Puebla\, Mexico. A colonial city located near Mexico City\, the location allows for consideration of past and present economies while drawing on pioneering Latin American debates in popular\, feminist and spatialized economies. \nThis meeting seeks to promote discussions around the collaborative aspects at stake for majority populations\, whose lives in many parts of the world are increasingly precarious and ever more traversed by illicit trade and traffic\, territorial and spatialized control and regulation\, and multiple and diverse violences. Popular economy perspectives allow us to examine such strategies in their most plural sense\, as a set of diverse and even contradictory experiences and practices\, that constantly exceed our conceptual categories\, and as such\, have continually reorganized modes of organization and cooperation\, as well as political subjectivities. Feminist economic analyses point to the importance attending to marginalized populations’ provisioning practices in contexts of capitalist expansion. This means understanding the increasingly complex work of taking care\, in negotiation with not only state and private\, but also illicit organizations and actors. Finally\, a spatial approach to translocal and transnational economies allows us to read popular sectors’ multiple and variegated strategies of stabilization and dispute in the context of economic and political crises inscribed into multiple and unequal territories marked by incessant mobilities and inmobilities. \nFramed by these perspectives\, we seek to put anthropological and archeological studies into discussion to help us understand the ways that neoliberal destructuring of salaried work and public services have made it increasingly difficult for marginalized populations to function completely separately from illegalized circuits: families members migrate through trans-border trajectories\, contraband provides possibilities for both work and affordable goods\, young people find diversified labor opportunities in expanding criminalized networks. Explorations of actually existing popular economies from feminist perspectives will help us better understand the intensification and transformation of strategies to guarantee reproduction over multiple territories. \nThe 2025 SEA meeting “Sustaining Life between Popular and Illicit Economies” will be bilingual\, with translations and exchanges in English and in Spanish. We hope that our exchanges in this SEA meeting will help us explore the recreation of common modes of existence that allow popular sectors to establish lives worth living in increasingly difficult conditions for their reproduction\, particularly with the multiplication of interconnections between popular and illicit economies. Please see ttps://econanthro.org/meet/2025-sea-45th-annual-meeting/ for a full description of the call including papers topics of particular interest. \nAbstracts will be received through the SEA Submission Site through February 3rd\, 2025. For more information\, please contact Cristina Cielo at mccielo@flacso.edu.ec

SUMMARY:The 2025 Society for Linguistic Anthropology Biennial Conference
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to imagine today?\nThe 2025 Society for Linguistic Anthropology Conference invites participants to explore the many ways that imagination critically shapes\, reproduces\, and transforms social worlds across times\, spaces\, and scales through discursive and non-discursive processes and practices. \nStarting with the idea of imagination as movement toward a thing\, state of affairs\, and/or set of ideas that does not (yet) exist\, we prompt participants to ask: Who imagines? What gets imagined? Toward what ends and with what effects? How do particular imaginaries resist or engage practices and technologies of mediation?  What happens when imagination is not just linked to\, but is also untethered from temporal terms and logics? What is the relationship between imagination and forms of individual and collective action\, including narrative\, claims-making\, and other rhetorical modes? How can we understand the myriad instantiations of imagination\, creation\, and critique—from innovation\, construction\, or invention to destruction\, violence\, or the reinforcement of the status quo?

SUMMARY:Society for the Anthropology of Consciousness Spring Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Don’t we all love a little magic and mystery? Ancient mystery schools taught ways of navigating the universe\, connecting with the divine\, and gaining wisdom. Magic was a method of interacting with the supernatural and to influence desired outcomes. Yet\, even as science has changed our understanding of the world and our place in it\, people still seek out the mystical. Many seek out spiritual experiences\, delight in being fooled by illusionists\, attend role-playing mysteries\, and hope their Hogwarts letter will arrive. For the upcoming conference we invite members to explore how and why mystery and magic are so enchanting to us. While there have been many anthropological studies of magic in the past\, there are still many meaningful ways in which we can look at how magic and mystery impact humanity. We are looking for topics from personal experiences of magic\, magic as control\, connection\, self-actualization\, even to the mystery of consciousness itself.

SUMMARY:2025 Society for Psychological Anthropology (SPA) Biennial Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The SPA Biennial brings together scholars from all levels – students\, postdocs\, junior & senior faculty—who are exploring diverse issues in psychological anthropology. The conference is an opportunity to immerse yourself in current debates\, controversies\, and state-of-the-art thinking across a range of approaches within the field.  This is also an opportunity to meet new colleagues and old friends alike. We are planning many informal events and spaces in which we can think out loud\, together.  For those new to the SPA\, we warmly welcome you as part of this community! \nWe recognize that a post-pandemic and Zoom world can induce people to stay at home and on-line.  That sort of habitus misses out on the lived experience and collective energy of shared space.  We are confident that the ambiance of the Santa Ana Pueblo’s Tamaya conference center makes this meeting worth showing up for.  The program offers innovative forums for interaction\, including plenaries\, pre-conference methods/writing workshops\, mentoring for students/junior scholars\, and more.

SUMMARY:COSSA's 2025 Social Science Advocacy Day
DESCRIPTION:COSSA’s annual Social Science Advocacy Day will be taking place on March 24-25\, 2025\, in Washington\, DC. Advocacy Day brings together social and behavioral scientists and science advocates from across the country to engage with policymakers in Congress about issues important to our community\, such as federal funding. Participants will be teamed up with advocates and participate in a day of in-person meetings with House and Senate offices on Capitol Hill. Through these meetings\, you will share reasons why federal government support for social and behavioral science research is so critical and discuss how you and your institution can be helpful to your elected officials. Advocates will be given all the resources they need to have successful meetings\, including a preparatory seminar\, and all your meetings will be scheduled for you. The only thing you need to do is come to Washington prepared to talk about why you love social and behavioral science! \nThe stakes for research funding have never been higher as we enter a particularly challenging political and budgetary environment. Social Science Advocacy Day is a must for all stakeholders who care about the fate of federal funding for social and behavioral science research and who believe this research should be used to inform sound public policy.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: DEI in the Balance
DESCRIPTION:Title: DEI in the Balance \nWhen: March 20 1:00 to 2:00 PM EST \nLearning Objectives: \nOn January 20\, 2025\, President Trump began signing a series of executive orders that attempted to position diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) programs\, initiatives\, and activities as illegal on the grounds that DEI is “discriminatory.” In this webinar\, we discuss the language of these executive orders and their scope of impact\, including on work and activities related to DEI in different sectors\, such as higher-education and for-profit organizations in the United States. The webinar will also focus on what we can continue to do to advance the principles behind DEI\, both at work and in our personal lives\, in this precarious regulatory environment. \nPresenter Bios: \nDr. Luzilda C. Arciniega and Dr. Melissa Maceyko are anthropologists and co-founders of Willing Observers\, a consulting firm that centers cultural approaches and methods to deepen diversity\, equity\, inclusion and belonging in organizations. Dr. Arciniega’s background is in business and organizational cultures\, DEIB best practices and benchmarking\, and critical race and feminist studies. Dr. Maceyko’s background is in language and social justice\, legal and political anthropology\, allyship\, and gender and sexuality studies. At Willing Observers they conduct cultural assessments\, develop and facilitate training\, and help organizations with DEIB strategic planning and metrics. Their Inclusive Culture Strategy programs train DEIB advocates on key foundations and knowledge in DEIB and culture-change. \nPricing – Free  \nAAA Membership is not required to attend. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Society for Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology (SLACA) Biennial Spring Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Society for Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology (SLACA) is pleased to invite\nsubmissions for our biennial conference\, “(Im)mobility and Memory in Latin America and the\nCaribbean.” This conference will explore the dynamic interrelations between memory and\nmobility in the region\, focusing on how both movement and stasis shape\, and are shaped by\,\ncultural\, social and historical processes. We seek to examine how memory—individual and\ncollective—becomes a contested terrain in relation to both mobility and immobility. \nConceptualizing Memory: \nIn this conference\, we are imagining Memory as encompassing not only personal and collective\nrecollections but also broader questions of heritage\, patrimony\, and history. How are tangible\nand intangible forms of patrimony – such as monuments\, artifacts\, oral traditions\, and historical\nnarratives – remembered\, preserved\, or transformed in contexts of movement\, migration\, or\ndisplacement? How do communities in Latin America and the Caribbean negotiate their cultural\nand historical legacies in the face of (im)mobility? We invite participants to consider these and\nother questions as they relate to the politics of memory\, heritage\, and identity.

SUMMARY:2025 Victor Turner Prize in Ethnographic Writing Contest Entry
DESCRIPTION:2025 Victor Turner Prize in Ethnographic Writing\nThe Society for Humanistic Anthropology (SHA) announces the annual juried competition for the Victor Turner Prize in Ethnographic Writing. The late Victor Turner devoted his career to seeking an accessible language that would reopen anthropology to the human subject\, and the competition recognizes the innovative books that further this project. We seek graceful\, accessible ethnographic writing which deeply explores its subject and contributes in innovative and engaging ways to the genre(s) of ethnography and the field of humanistic (and/or post-humanistic) anthropology. \nAward\nA $1\,000 first-place\, a $500 second place and a $250 third-place prize will be awarded in autumn of 2025 (either via online SHA awards ceremony\, or in person at the American Anthropological Association meetings in New Orleans\, November 19-23\, 2025). \n2025 Edie Turner First Book Prize in Ethnographic Writing\nAuthors for whom their submission to the Victor Turner Prize is also their first book publication will also be eligible for consideration for the Edie Turner First Book Prize in Ethnographic Writing\, a newly created award which recognizes Edie Turner’s support and mentorship of junior scholars. Up to two winners of the Edie Turner Prize may be selected at the discretion of the prize committee. \nAward\nA $1\,000 first-place prize\, potentially split between co-winners\, will be awarded in autumn 2025 (either via online SHA awards ceremony\, or in person at the American Anthropological Association meetings in New Orleans\, November 19-23\, 2025). This award will not affect any book’s consideration for the Victor Turner Prize\, and a book may win both awards. There is no separate entry form for the Edie Turner Prize. \nEligibility\n\nEligible ethnographic genres for both prizes include single or co-authored book-length monographs\, narratives\, historical accounts\, biographies\, memoirs\, dramas\, and creative ethnography (including nonfiction\, fiction\, and poetic works); as well as single-authored collections of essays\, short prose\, or poems (sorry\, no edited collections with multiple contributors).\nOnly books copywrited in 2024 will be eligible. If the work is in translation to English\, we allow 2 extra years from the original publication date; therefore a book published in its original language no earlier than 2022 would be eligible.\nBooks must have been peer-reviewed independently of its author(s).\nBooks may be entered into the competition by authors\, publishers\, book editors\, or colleagues. No formal letter of nomination is needed.\nPublishers are encouraged to limit their submissions to ten books per publisher.\n\nSubmission Guidelines\nBy June 1\, 2025\, Please: \n\nComplete your information in this ENTRY FORM\nPay the entry fee (details to be provided)\nSubmit an electronic copy of your book by the June 1 deadline to SHAVictorTurner@gmail.com.\nShort listed book authors will be asked to submit paper copies of their books to each of the judges (addresses will be provided to these authors and/or publishers).\n\nBiographical information submitted will be used for presenting the winners and publicizing the results of the competition and will not be used for judging the quality of the entries. \nSubmission Fee\nFor authors who are already or become SHA members\, the entry fee is $25/book.

SUMMARY:Anthropology News Call for Pitches: Signal/Noise
DESCRIPTION:Anthropology News invites submissions on the theme of signal/noise. We are looking for stories about how communities\, cultures\, and individuals distinguish meaningful patterns from background noise\, interpret disruptions\, and find (dis)connection amid interference. What counts as signal versus noise\, and who gets to decide? How are fuzzy boundaries clarified or precarious structures disrupted? What happens when communication is both necessary and fraught\, or what makes messages shared or misconstrued? \nAnthropology News encourages submissions in a variety of formats to present compelling stories that make anthropological insights accessible to a wide audience. Think short-form magazine-style stories with scientific bite—low on jargon\, high on storytelling—or compelling photo essays or multimedia pieces. Read more about us here and consider how you might tell anthropological stories for a general audience as you consider the direction of your pitch. \nPlease submit a 300-word pitch outlining your piece’s central theme\, along with a 50-word bio\, through our submission form (button above). We will accept pitches through February 7\, 2025. Authors of accepted pitches will be asked to develop their pieces in collaboration with AN’s editorial team\, which will be published on a rolling basis on the AN website through June 2025. Feature articles should be around 2\,000 words\, photo essays should consist of six to eight high-resolution images with a 750-word introductory essay\, and audiovisual work can be developed in consultation with AN editors. Contact us at an@americananthro.org if you have any questions.
