Scope
editThe Journal of Social Archaeology covers research on social approaches in archaeology, including feminism, queer theory, postcolonialism, social geography, literary theory, politics, anthropology, cognitive studies, and behavioural science, from prehistoric to present-day contexts. The journal also covers contemporary politics and heritage issues, and aims to break down the "arbitrary and hegemonic boundaries between North American, Classical, Near Eastern, Mesoamerican, European and Australian archaeologies – and beyond".[1]
Contents
editThe Journal of Social Archaeology is published in February, June, and October. Each issue contains 5-7 articles, occasionally featuring interviews with social theorists considered "prominent" by the editors.[1]
