Call for Pitches: WASTE : avant le 22 février 2022
Anthropology News invites you to get your hands dirty and submit a pitch for our May/June waste issue. Whether your story is about waste work or wastelands or time wasters, we want to hear about it. What can anthropology tell us about waste and discards, organic, plastic, chemical, and our relations with them? How might humans and waste constitute one another? Nuclear waste repositories? Certainly. Excrement, scat, or manure? Of course. Cellphone metal recovery? You bet. Landfill pickers, ocean-drifting microplastics, ship-breaking yards? Absolutely. Freeganism?
