The Anthropologies-in-Translation site was officially launched in 2007 ©

By first exploring knowledge as practice, we learn about living processes through anthropological lens and contribute our knowledge to making sense of lifeworlds. Extending this notion of practice, we seek to highlight anthropological knowledge as processual within and outside academia.

The site hosts the online issues of the  Journal of Legal Anthropology . We have an ongoing call for papers. Please see this link for submission guidelines. 

We facilitate a research network committed to engaging with people in multiple lifeworlds through diverse knowledge forms. 

The network emphasises research and teaching activities in terms of an anthropology which is accessible in contemporary settings and allows for transformative spaces in making sense of our world(s). This network brings together anthropologists and other researchers interested in engaging with and making sense of humans through these translatable spaces.  We invite comments from anthropologists, other researchers and practitioners working on these and related issues.  Please go to Anthropology Posts for more details.   Please register on site to add your comments, and to become a member of this research network.

We are currently working on a number of projects which will bring out the relevance and translatability of anthropological knowledge to diverse settings.  Contact us if you would like to add details on the site of related projects, conference activities, research and practice relevant to anthropology. Please also contact us at  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Our featured researcher this month is Louise Chambers, a UEL anthropology graduate, who has used her skills as an anthropologist to work with vulnerable groups. Further details will be posted shortly. 

Please also send your anthropology news and positions for our events diary and announcements section. The site also welcomes news and reviews of conferences.

We facilitate a Belonging Across Difference Scheme for students and ex-students across universities. Through research project and or other activities, persons are invited to make visual or written submissions on the ways they incorporate classroom work and 'lived experiences' in extra-curricula activities and or professional environments.

Please follow the links for more details of these initiatives.
