CA Announces its Virtual Issue on Kinships
In response to the often-deafening debates concerning the marriage equality movement in the US, clandestine polygamous marriages in Italy, transnational adoptions, and expanding global access to medicalized reproduction, this Virtual Issue draws together five recent essays to be published by Cultural Anthropology which critically examine the topic of kinships. Through an array of methodological, theoretical, and textual approaches, the essays in this issue focus attention on less familiar, though equally instructive, practices, and imaginaries of kinship. We offer these essays as a challenge to reflect on the perpetual motion of the politics of kinship, as well as an invitiation to explore the rich archive on the topic to be found in Cultural Anthropology.
CA Announces its Virtual Issue on Security
From terrorism to swine flu, to the current economic crisis, issues of security, broadly defined and experienced, seem to be taking front and centre stage in our contemporary moment. In light of this, Cultural Anthropology has decided to focus a special virtual issue on the theme of "security" - http://culanth.org/?q=node/258
The virtual issue spotlights five articles from Cultural Anthropology's contemporary archives that we feel theorize, broaden, and understand "security" through their diverse ethnographic settings and approaches. Moreover, these featured articles illustrate that anthropology as a discipline has always been, at least tangentially, concerned with issues of and relating to security. Taken together, the articles illustrate that "security," as much as it is currently a buzz word, must be unpacked and related to its various applications and articulations in specific contexts and histories. With that in mind, the featured authors in this issue have been asked to share their thoughts and insights into this ever-emerging field of study. Some of their thoughts are shared on this page. We provide a link where their full answers can be found with a forum section for further discussion. We highly encourage you to visit this section and add your own questions and comments - http://culanth.org/?q=node/259
