Global
Ethnographic accepts articles with an ethnographic focus
from a range of disciplines including social anthropology,
cultural studies, philosophy, humanities, social psychology
and area studies. Although
GE normally fields articles from academics,
submissions from postgraduate students, as well as submissions
of exceptional papers by undergraduates, are also encouraged.
GE employs professional practicing social anthropologists
to review and edit articles--the peer review process is akin
to an academic journal, and thus a publication in GE
will count as a serious publication towards an academic career.
In general,
we accept articles on any topic related to human social life.
Articles must, however, be ethnographic in nature and
be written in accessible language.
Articles that feature verbose language or overly in-depth
theoretical discussions are not normally considered, although
if the ethnographic findings warrant such investigations then
exceptions will be made.
Writing clearly, simply and with the aim of gaining
the interest of the general reader is a challenge which must
be taken up if social research is to have an impact beyound
the academy. Articles using photographs, creative writing
styles, and any other novel approaches to involving the reader
in the experience of the ethnographer are thus particularly
welcome.
The maximum
word limit for articles is 3000, (7 pages of 12 point
text), and shorter articles still (between 1,000-2,000 words)
are encouraged. Any
references to other work must be complete and cited in an
established format.
You will need to submit your article as a word file
to the email address submit@globalethnographic.com
. Please include
a brief summary of your status and affiliate university/institution
(if appropriate).
Following submission, you will receive confirmation
that your paper has been received for review (usually within
7 days). You
will then be notified of a decision on whether your paper
is to be published on-line within 28 days of this confirmation.
Please attach pictures in common formats (.jpg or .gif).
Thank
you for your submission!
