Collaborative Anthropologies is a journal meant to engage the growing and ever-widening discussion of collaborative research and practice in anthropology and in closely related fields.  Published annually, the journal:

• facilitates dialogue about collaborative anthropologies, including but not limited to those between and among researchers and their interlocutors, anthropologists and other scholars/practitioners, academics and other professionals, universities and local communities, faculty and students;
• embraces a special focus on the complex collaborations between and among researchers and research participants/interlocutors/collaborators, but is by no means limited to this focus;
• promotes discussion about new forms of collaborative research that are engendering new kinds of collaborative anthropologies;
• charts new theoretical and methodological approaches, especially those that theorize collaboration and imagine new intellectual spaces for collaborative anthropologies;
• invites essays that are descriptive as well as analytical, interpretive, and exploratory;
• solicits works from all subfields of anthropology (and closely related disciplines);
• encourages interdisciplinary inquiry into collaborative anthropologies, especially those that connect collaborative anthropologies with other modes of collaborative research practices;
• seeks a diversity of perspectives on collaborative research, including those academic, applied, and pedagogic;
• considers scholarship from single to multi-sited in scope and from all parts of the world; and
• invites book, media, and exhibit reviews that chronicle the creative and innovative use of collaboration in anthropology and closely related fields.
