ASIAN ANTHROPOLOGY

ASIAN ANTHROPOLOGY seeks to bring interesting and exciting new anthropological research on Asia to a global audience. Until now, anthropologists writing on a range of Asian topics in English but seeking a global audience have had to depend largely on Western-based journals to publish their works. Given the increasing number of indigenous anthropologists and anthropologists based in Asia, it seems a very appropriate time to establish a new anthropology journal that is refereed on a global basis but that is editorially Asian-based. ASIAN ANTHROPOLOGY is editorially based in Hong Kong, but welcomes contributions from anthropologists and anthropology-related scholars throughout the world with an interest in Asia, especially East and Southeast Asia. While the language of the journal is English, we also seek original works translated into English, which will facilitate greater participation and scholarly exchange. The journal will provide a forum for anthropologists working on Asia, in the broadest sense of the term "Asia." We seek submissions, following the guidelines described on the page that follows. More broadly, we seek your general support, through submissions, subscriptions, and comments. Please be in touch!

Information for Authors

Submissions to ASIAN ANTHROPOLOGY should be 20-35 double-spaced pages in length, all-inclusive, accompanied, if appropriate, by photographs, which we welcome. Submissions should have a title page bearing the author's name and affiliation, but that information should not appear in the body of the text, since each submission will be anonymously refereed. Submissions should use author-date citation form in the text (for example Hannerz 1996: 44-55), and give full citation information in the bibliography, for example,

Hannerz, Ulf. 1996. Transnational Connections: Culture, people, places. London and New York: Routledge.

Manuscripts should be submitted electronically if possible, as an e-mail attachment using MS Word or RTF; they may also be submitted by regular mail, in which case we will need three copies of the manuscript, and a disk in MS Word as well, if possible.

If you have queries as to the sutability of any submission, please write us. Send submissions and queries to the editors, Dr. Gordon Mathews or Dr. Sidney Cheung, at the following addresses:
