About the journal
The Australian Journal of Anthropology (TAJA) publishes scholarly papers and book reviews in anthropology and related disciplines. Though wide ranging in its areas of interest, the journal especially welcomes theoretically focused analyses and ethnographic reports based on fieldwork carried out in Australia and neighbouring countries in the Pacific and Asian regions.
It appears three times a year (April, August and December) and at least one issue per annum is devoted to a specific topic under the direction of a guest editor. Each issue contains approximately 125 pages.
Instructions to Authors
STYLE GUIDE FOR CONTRIBUTORS
Please follow these guidelines very closely in preparing your manuscript. If you do not, we may have to return it to you. At the very least it will cause delays in publication due to extra editorial work.
Manuscripts should be submitted electronically to roselilley@fastmail.fm Maximum length of papers is normally 8,000 words, though longer articles may be published if the author has a subsidy or by negotiation with the editor. Manuscripts should include an abstract of no more than 250 words. A title page should be included with the author¡¯s name(s), institutional affiliation (if any), full address, phone/fax numbers and e-mail ddress.
Footnotes should be used sparingly and be placed at the bottom of each page. Please italicise all foreign words, except when they are proper names. Also italicise titles of books, journal and newspapers, but not unpublished material such as manuscripts or unpublished theses. Do not underline. Manuscripts will be subjected to peer review. Authors will receive a complimentary copy of the journal in which their contribution appears. Off-prints can be ordered at cost price on acceptance of contribution.
Authors retain copyright to their published material. The opinions expressed are those of the authors and do not necessarily express those of the journal¡¯s editors nor those of the fellows and members of the Australian Anthropological Society.
References
In-text
References in the text should give the surname of the author and the year of publication in brackets, e.g. (Foucault 1967). Where applicable the page reference should follow the year of publication after a colon, for example, (Foucault 1967: 21). Please note, no comma after author¡¯s name. When there are two or more authors with the same last names, use identifying initials in the text. When there are more than two authors use et al. in the text, but provide the full list of authors in the end-of-text reference.
For an in-text reference the punctuation mark should come after bracketed reference, e.g. ¡®northeast regions¡¯ (Werasit et al. 1992: 45). For an in-text reference located at the end of an indented quote the punctuation mark should come at the end of the quote, e.g.
.... otherwise known as the White Australia Policy. (White 1980: 26)
For an in-text statement enclosed by inverted commas the punctuation mark should come after the closing inverted comma, i.e. ¡®the village in the rainforest¡¯. Please use the single curled form for both quotation marks and apostrophes.
End- of-text
All references cited, and only these, should be listed under the heading References. References should be listed in alphabetical order according to author¡¯s surname where applicable and in chronological order for each author. Pay particular attention to how names are listed, to the order of names, title, place and publisher and especially to punctuation. Please note¡ªfull-stop after (ed.) but not after (eds). Page numbers should be supplied for journal articles and for articles in edited collections. Initials only for personal names of authors. Capitals should be used for the first letters of all major words in book titles but only for proper nouns in titles of journal articles. Some referencing examples follow:

Editorial Board
At its meeting of 7th May 2002, the AAS Executive was concerned to ensure that assistance be provided to the Editor in coming to decisions about whether or not to publish items submitted to the AAS Newsletter. Accordingly, the following resolution was passed:
The Editor may, at his or her discretion, refer an article submitted for publication, to an ad hoc Editorial Committee.
The Editorial Committee shall comprise three members of the Executive, one of whom will provide secretarial assistance. The AAS Executive may also provide administrative assistance if required.
The Editorial Committee may consider the matter by meeting together directly, talking by telephone or by video conference, or by exchange of emails.
The Editorial Committee shall provide its advice in relation to whether the article referred to it should be published. The Committee may, at its discretion, seek legal opinion in relation to the proposed article, should it have grounds for considering that the article may be actionable in law.
The Editorial Committee shall provide its recommendation to the Editor.
Sole discretion whether to publish the article or not remains with the Editor, except if one or more members of the Editorial Committee are of the view that the matter should be referred to the AAS Executive for a decision. In this case, the decision as to whether or not to publish shall rest with the Executive.
The Editor shall give priority to Members of the AAS in deciding upon articles to be published in the AAS newsletter.
