CFP American Anthropological Association (AAA)/Canadian Anthropological Society (CASCA) Conference : Transition

Toronto, ON/Canada

November 15-19, 2023

https://cas-sca.ca/conference/upcoming-conference/information

Future & Past Meetings

AAA/CASCA2023 Theme and Abstract

Transitions may be the most constant feature of everyday life. With endless uncertainties that are exacerbated by political turmoil, pandemic unpredictability, and climate crisis, our quotidian experiences are steeped in mutability. Transitions present us with both challenges and opportunities, not only in our everyday lives but also in our work as anthropologists. We hope that transitions may be something that we can approach with a sense of experimentation, imagination, and play, rather than a growing state of exhaustion and dread. As we navigate these transitions, we continue to think about how anthropology can rise to face our current condition, or ways it may fall short.
