Dear colleagues,
We are very grateful for the many positive responses from around the world to our call for corona diaries in the strict sense of the term (see below). Such a diary archive seems to come at just the right time, because many of you are watching the developments very closely and have been thinking about how to deal with your own observations for quite some time, and some of you are already writing diaries.
There were many questions about the procedure. You will find a summary of all aspects of the Curare Corona Diaries Project at: https://boasblogs.org/witnessingcorona/curare-corona-diaries-project/
Please send your entries to the following email address: [log in to unmask]
We are looking forward to your participation.
Kind regards on behalf of the editorial team

> CORONA DIARIES WANTED
>
> The editorial board of "Curare. Journal of Medical Anthropology" is planning a special issue on the current corona pandemic. For this purpose, we are collecting ethnographic material written down as (auto-)ethnographic diaries, which record what is happening in one's own environment.
>
> This is perhaps a unique opportunity to generate ethnographic material that makes it possible to reconstruct collectively, in retrospect, what is happening right now and what we cannot comprehend at this moment of crisis. The situation in individual countries is developing differently, and countries are increasingly closing their national borders, which makes it interesting and important to look from a comparative perspective at what is happening in similar and different ways in individual countries.
>
> The retrospective interpretation of what has happened will probably be quite controversial in the public sphere when it later comes, among other things, to assessing how this situation was handled and the consequences of crisis management, as well as drawing lessons for the future. This kind of daily ethnographic recording will be all the more important for this discussion.
>
> Therefore, we are looking for correspondents from different countries who observe their own everyday life and that of others, who follow media coverage, save media documents, and record everything in a diary.
>
> Most important: We are looking for records of your own reactions and those of your environment on a daily basis and not retrospectively, to ensure that parts of the „indexicality" of the process can be reconstructed later.
>
> You could send your diary-documentation on a daily basis too. We aim to bring together the various diary entries in a next issue of Curare. If you are interested, please contact us by March 25, 2020 at [log in to unmask]

> AIMS & SCOPE
> Since 1978, Curare. Journal of Medical Anthropology, has provided an international and interdisciplinary forum for the scientific discussion of topics in medical anthropology, understood as encompassing all aspects of health, disease, medicine and healing, past and present, in different parts of the world.
> After a first, internal review by the editorial team, all research articles are subject to a rigorous, double-blind external review procedure. All other submitted manuscripts are internally reviewed by the editorial team. In addition to research articles, the journal publishes conference reports and book reviews. Furthermore, the journal’s forum section offers space for essayistic contributions, interviews and ethnographic vignettes.
> Curare is unique among medical anthropology journals in that it publishes articles in English and German. Curare also supports the publication of guest-edited special issues. If you are interested in submitting an article or a special issue proposal, please send an email to [log in to unmask]
