Anthropological Quarterly (AQ)

Anthropological Quarterly, also known as AQ, is a peer-reviewed journal published by the George Washington University Institute for Ethnographic Research. AQ was founded in 1921 by the Catholic University of America and was published from 1921 to 1953 under the name Primitive Man. While continuing to publish outstanding, original, data-driven articles that advance ethnography and anthropological theory, AQ also asks intellectuals to contribute to on-going public debates relevant to contemporary experiences and public debates. Topics include: war, racism, poverty, nationalism, globalization, human rights, and the social, legal, and ethical implications of new genetic technologies. Essays on such timely topics are published in our "Social Thought and Commentary" section. Anthropological Quarterly (AQ) features the highest quality peer-reviewed articles in ethnography and anthropological theory. One of the longest running journals in anthropology, AQ was founded in 1921 by the Catholic University of America and published as Primitive Man until 1953 when the Catholic University of America Press renamed the journal Anthropological Quarterly. The change of title was part of a broader shift in anthropology to eliminate anachronistic and Eurocentric terminology in the social sciences. In 2001, the George Washington University Institute for Ethnographic Research acquired AQ as an independent journal unconnected to the major commercial publishing companies. AQ’s editorial and publishing office is housed in the George Washington University Department of Anthropology.
