Curated Collections highlight articles published in the last decade from our AnthroSource archives that speak to urgent issues in the present, offering insight into current events unfolding around the globe. From movements for racial justice and Indigenous sovereignty to the social implications of climate change, technological transformation, war, migration, and public health, these contributions demonstrate anthropology’s enduring relevance and responsibilities.
This collection highlights work on St. Louis, the host city for our 2026 Annual Meeting. The meeting theme “On the Verge,” is reflected in these pieces, which to issues of race, immigration, urban displacement, and contested notions of resilience. We look forward to seeing everyone in St. Louis in November!
