The journal Economic Anthropology (Wiley Blackwell) is calling for open submissions for Volume 10, Number 1, which is to be published in January 2023. EA is a bi-annual refereed journal published by the Society for Economic Anthropology (SEA) to make available research that is innovative, interdisciplinary, and focused on economic and social life to serve scholars, practitioners, and general audiences. The journal has recorded the highest rate of readership growth and citations for all 34 American Anthropological Association journals. To further the goal of making the most current research available to a broad audience, EA emphasizes clear and accessible writing. We encourage authors to take advantage of the journal’s online format and incorporate photos, graphics, and links to videos or other related materials. The journal considers the work of scholars and practitioners from throughout the world and at all points in their careers, including advanced PhD students.
Timeliness is an important consideration in the EA publication process. It is our goal to bring each issue to final publication within approximately one year from the date of submission. This ambitious deadline represents a big commitment to getting new work out quickly and serves everyone’s interests, including junior scholars who are especially pressed to publish in quality journals without long lead times.
EA promotes inclusivity, diversity, antiracism, and anti-colonialism. We therefore encourage our potential contributors to cite relevant publications of members of historically marginalized groups and scholars from countries where the research was carried out.
The open submission issue features articles spanning a wide array of topics and disciplines including:

- The article must draw on original and clearly presented research.
- The article must present clear contributions to existing scholarship.
- The article needs to concern the interaction of economic and social life.
- The writing must be very clear and very well organized. Keep jargon to a minimum, or where possible, explain complex terms with ordinary language. Significant readability problems will disqualify an article before it goes to peer review.

Additional text and graphics are welcome as Supplementary Material, accessible from the article. Please upload all Tables and Figures as separate high quality files and indicate where they should be located in the main file.
