Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to announce that the latest issue of Anthropology in Action
has been published by Berghahn Journals. Titled Placing Wellbeing, this
thematic issue offers anthropologically-informed accounts of wellbeing from
place-based perspectives. This collection of articles contends that an
undermining of place has produced a lack of appreciation for the role that
culture plays in understandings and practices of wellbeing.
