ANN O U N C I N G 2nd ANNUAL PUBLIC ANTHROPOLOGY PUBLISHING COMPETITIONS

The University of California Press in association with the Center for a
Public Anthropology are again sponsoring, in 2009, two international
competitions focused on encouraging anthropologically inclined authors to
address major public problems and broad audiences. Both competitions will
award book contracts at early stages in the research/writing process -
without the applicant necessarily having completed (or even started) the
specified research and/or writing of the specified manuscript.

To learn more details - regarding the competition, the submission process,
and the standards by which entries will be judged - please click on this

May we ask a favor? Would you please forward this email to anyone you think
might not have received it. We discovered with the 2008 competition that a
number of high quality proposals were submitted only because some readers,
who received our announcement, took the time to forward it on to others who
had not heard about the competition. Thank you.

Regards,

Dr. Rob Borofsky (Center for a Public Anthropology  Hawaii Pacific
University)
Naomi Schneider (University of California Press)
