Contingent Horizons: The York University Student Journal of Anthropology is currently accepting submissions for its 9th volume, to be published in Summer 2023. As a peer-reviewed, open-access journal, we aim to showcase scholarly and creative works of academic excellence by graduate and undergraduate students. We invite prospective contributors to submit their original, unpublished works for consideration. Selected submissions will be published online with complimentary print copies provided to the authors.
1) Submissions
We are accepting submissions of original works that pertain to the discipline of anthropology. Submissions can include but are not limited to: ethnographic research articles, reviews (book reviews, ethnographic film reviews, exhibit reviews, album reviews), and creative works (photo essays, creative non-fiction, pedagogical tools, fieldwork reflections, interviews, and other pieces). In particular, we encourage submissions that engage a decolonial and intersectional approach to anthropological scholarship. Graduate and undergraduate students of anthropology and related disciplines are encouraged to submit their work.
Please review the submission guidelines on our website prior to completing your submission through the online platform: ch.journals.yorku.ca
The deadline for submissions is Tuesday, November 15th, 2022.
2) Peer Reviewers
We are recruiting both undergraduate and graduate students who are willing to act as peer reviewers for the journal. Peer reviewers will be asked to provide substantial and constructive feedback about the content of no more than one submission per year.
