Call for Papers
The Society for Economic Anthropology seeks
proposals for papers and poster presentations for our 2005 annual
meetings, April 21-23, 2005 at Dartmouth College, Hanover, New
Hampshire on the theme: “Economies and the Transformation
of Landscape.”
The SEA meetings provide a rare opportunity
for a focused and coherent program of presentation, with time
for critical discussion in a convivial intellectual setting.
About 15 papers are selected from abstracts for a program that
allows 20 minutes for presentation and 20 minutes for discussion
in a single plenary session over two days; 20-30 additional
abstracts will be selected for an afternoon poster session.
Each SEA conference also produces a book on the same theme.
Submitting a paper for the plenary session is a commitment that
you wish to be considered for inclusion in this volume.
We seek papers that address the interconnected
themes of conceptual and physical transformations of the landscape,
as well as those that focus more specifically on one or more
of the following cross cutting sub themes:
* Livelihoods and Access to Resources (including the intersection
of economy-ecology at household, community and regional scales).
* Political-economy of landscape transformation – (including
the role power plays in transforming landscapes).
* Beyond the local – multilevel transformations (including
links between interregional and global processes and their impacts
on local landscapes).
* Historical and pre-historical processes of human adaptation
and environmental change
* The "constructedness" of landscapes – physically
and cognitively – and the role of the economy in conceptualizing
the environment.
We encourage archaeologists to submit abstracts as well as cultural
anthropologists, geographers and other social scientists concerned
with economy-ecology linkages. Send an abstract for a paper
or poster of 400-600 words to Lisa Cliggett and Chris Pool,
Department of Anthropology, 211 Lafferty Hall, University of
Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506-0024. Deadline for abstracts is
November 1, 2004.
