Journal of Linguistic Anthropology

JLA Logo

The Journal of Linguistic Anthropology (JLA),a semiannual publication of the Society for Linguistic Anthropology (SLA), a Section of the American Anthropological Association (AAA), welcomes contributions of relevance to linguistic anthropology. Articles, while presenting research results, should develop general theoretical implications and larger issues of debate. Such articles may vary in length, but submissions should not normally exceed 10,000 words (inclusive of notes but not bibliography). Other contributions might include critical essays, interviews, commentaries, discussions, brief translations, and reviews of recent books in linguistic anthropology and closely related topics.

Back issues of the JLA are archived on AnthroSource.
