The Journal of the National Association of Student Anthropologists

Call for Papers and Peer Reviewers: Submission Deadline April 15, 2012

Student Anthropologist is the flagship peer-reviewed journal of the National Association of Student Anthropologists

(the largest organization of anthropologist students in the world). It is an annual digital publication. Students from all

levels and disciplines are encouraged to contribute.

Aim and Scope

With each issue, Student Anthropologistwill explore thematic areas and new directions in anthropology from theperspective of the best young anthropologists. We seek a plurality of voices from all subfields in each issue. Student

Anthropologist welcomes not only original research addressing anthropological issues and problems but also

submissions that explore how anthropological skills, ideas, and ethnography can have an impact on contemporary

social issues.

We seek scholarly submissions from undergraduate and graduate students worldwide, in particular those

emphasizing anthropologys capacity to shape public issues, social problems, and global realities. These

submissions should contain original research.

The two types of submissions accepted include:1. Scholarly articles: under 4,000 words in length, subject to a peer review process.

2. Commentary submissions: opinion or theory pieces that are the original work of the author. Commentary

submissions might include such mediums as written pieces (approx. 1,000 words in length), photo essays (10photos + 1,000 words of commentary in length) and videos/YouTube clips (10-minute maximum in duration +

1,000 words of commentary in length).

Student Anthropologist not only aims to publish excellent student research but also to provide an avenue for

professionalization for students to become involved in journal processes. Students act as peer reviewers and

editors. Please email nasaejournal@gmail.com if you would like to act as a peer reviewer or get involved with other

journal production opportunities.

Submission Guidelines

Any student currently enrolled in a BA, MA, or PhD program is welcome to submit original research to be

considered for publication. While this is an anthropology journal, students do not need to be enrolled in an

anthropology program.

(.pages) format and conform to AAA style (http://www.aaanet.org/publications/style_guide.pdf). Submissions should

be double spaced and adhere to the word limits outlined in this CFP. Rarely, we consider longer submissions or

those of an irregular nature. Manuscripts should include a 200 word abstract.
