Food Security Proposal Deadline Extended

The proposal deadline for the food security issue of Anthropology News has been extended to June 23, 2008. We welcome proposals for commentaries addressing current disaster and climate-change related food crises throughout the world, and responses to those crises. Additionally, we welcome articles that address a wide variety of other issues, including food safety and regulation; the relation between food security, economic security, disease and nutrition; the stability, loss and transformation of food traditions; agribusiness and food production; genetic engineering; and biofuels.

To participate in this thematic issue email a 300 word proposal and 50-100 word author bio to Anthropology News Associate Managing Editor Dinah Winnick. For additional information and guidelines see our website.
