Letter from the Book Series Editor

Rountree

The EASA book series is dedicated to showcasing the excellent anthropology being carried out by the Association’s members. After July’s conference in Milan, a new series editor will take over and I will turn my attentions to other projects. If you are thinking about publishing, information about how to go about making a proposal to the series is available on the EASA website (www.easaonline.org/bookseri.htm). The new series editor will be announced later in the summer on the site. The website also includes a list of volumes available in the series.

I hope I have been able to help those who have proposed titles for the series with at least some of the many issues involved in publishing. I’m particularly glad that despite the ever growing challenges of academic work, EASA members are clearly using the series to develop anthropology’s globe-embracing tradition and doing so with conceptual and formal innovation as well as intellectual rigour.

I have learned that producing books is always a collective affair, and I would like to acknowledge the valuable input of all the staff at Berghahn involved with EASA’s anthropology titles. I also want to thank the following people, including the members of the editorial board, without whom the editorial review process could not function:

Alberto Corsin Jiménez, Anonymous, Bill Maurer, Birgit Muller, Bjørn Enge Bertelsen, Jim Butcher, Caroline Humphrey, Dace Dzenovska, Deborah Reed-Danahay, Dimitri Karadimas, Elissa Helms, Emma Crewe, Gavan Titley, Giuliana Prato, Jessica Greenberg, Jim Butcher, Kim Fortun, Knut Nustad, Leah Burns, Liz McFall, Manos Spyridakis, Marianne Lien, Marisol de la Cadena, Michal Buchowski, Nathalie Peutz, Paul Stubbs, Peter Hervik, Peter Wynn Kirby, Robert Hayden, Rochelle Spencer, Sian Lazar, Simon Lightfoot, Susana Narotzky.

With all best wishes,
Eeva Berglund, Helsinki
