Calls for Dossier
Antropolítica receives articles continuously for the following sections: Articles, Trajectories and Perspectives, Crossed Perspectives, and Reviews. The specifics of each section, the types of documents accepted, and the submission method are available in “Editorial Policies.”
Submissions for Thematic Dossiers must be made according to the currently open calls. The Thematic Dossiers aim to promote dialogue on relevant and current topics for the Social Sciences, especially for Anthropology. Therefore, make sure that your proposal is aligned with the open call. In addition, articles must also comply with the submission criteria defined by the journal, which can be checked in “Submissions.”
We emphasize that it is necessary to indicate, during the submission, to which Dossier the article is being submitted. This indication must be made in the “Comments to the Editor” field.
