Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to announce that the latest issue of Anthropology in Action has been published by Berghahn Journals and will be offered in its entirety as open access content until October 2, 2015.
This issue features articles focusing on issues related to the Research Excellence Framework, the impact agenda, and debates surrounding open access. On December 18 2014, the results of the U.K.’s Research Excellence Framework (REF) evaluation exercise were released. This was made more complex by the fact that for the first time, 20% of the overall scoring of a unit of assessment was attributed to research ‘impact’. This issue of Anthropology in Action is dedicated to exploring issues raised by these events.
Please visit the Berghahn website for more information about the journal: www.journals.berghahnbooks.com/aia
Free Access to the Current Issue until October 2!
