New Am. Anth. letterLee Cronk (CRONK@TAMVM1.TAMU.EDU)Fri, 7 Oct 1994 14:31:13 CDT
Ashmore (UPenn), chair of the AAA's Committee on Scientific Communication, voicing my concerns about American Anthropologist under the editorship of the Tedlocks. In my letter I try to be very clear that my objection is not with their particular theoretical stance, but with the heavy editorial hand they are taking. I am sending copies of the letter to the other members of the Committee (David Frayer, Helan Page, Sara A. Quandt, Naomi Quinn, Joan Vincent, and Duane Anderson), as well as to the AAA board. The names of the AAA board members are printed on the inside of the cover of each issue of AA (this much has not changed). I urge all of you have also expressed a concern with the new American Anthropologist to also write letters to Ashmore. Here is her address: Department of Anthropology University of Pennsylvania 325 University Museum 33rd and Spruce Streets Philadelphia, PA 19104-6398 -Lee ************************************************************************ Lee Cronk Assistant Professor Department of Anthropology Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77843-4352 Office: 409-847-9254 Fax: 409-845-4070 E-mail: cronk@tamvm1.tamu.edu ************************************************************************
