book series

Chief contributions to EASA's conferences have been published not only in the scholarly periodical Social Anthropology/Anthropologie Sociale, but also until recently in a series of books published by Routledge, London. This widely used series already includes several key anthropological titles published over the last few years, and our new relationship with Berghahn books promises many more in the near future...

EASA Publications Report Summary 2006-2007
I am happy to report that the following book was launched at Bristol in EASA/Berghahn series:
Skilled Visions: Between Apprenticeship and Standards, ed. Christina Grassen (University of Bergamo)
In addition, we have the following two volumes at advanced stages of publication. They are being advertised in Berghahn flyers - and so should be launched at the conference in Ljubljana:
Going First Class: New Approaches to Privileged Movement and Travel, ed. Vered Amit (Concordia University)
Exploring Regimes of Discipline: The Dynamics of Restraint, ed. Noel Dyck (Simon Fraser University)

We also have a number of innovative collections in preparation by EASA members such as the following two:
Postsocialist Europe: Anthropological Perspectives from Home, eds Peter Skalnik (University of Pardubice) and László Kürti (University of Miskolc)
Ethnographic Practice in the Present, eds Helena Wulff (University of Stockholm), Marit Melhuus (University of Oslo) & Jon Mitchell (University of Sussex)

Further to this, we have a number of quality proposals under review from the Bristol EASA conference. As per previous reports, I am pleased to note that we are sticking to a review turn around period of approximately 2 months. Details of how to submit a proposal are outlined below. Lastly, I should like to communicate my thanks to Marion Berghahn and the staff at Berghahn Books for their support of the EASA/Berghahn Series, and to the anonymous reviewers for their assistance with the review process.
