Scope & Guideline
Exploring the Interconnections of Humanity and Animality
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Zooarchaeology and Historical Ecology:
The journal frequently publishes studies that examine animal remains in archaeological contexts, investigating human-animal interactions throughout history and their ecological implications. - Cultural Significance of Animals:
Research often explores the symbolic and cultural roles of animals in different societies, including their representation in art, mythology, and rituals. - Ethnobiological Studies:
The journal includes articles that delve into local knowledge and practices regarding animals, highlighting how cultural beliefs influence human interactions with wildlife. - Animal Behavior and Welfare:
There is a growing focus on understanding animal behavior from both historical and contemporary perspectives, considering welfare implications in various settings. - Multispecies Relationships:
The journal emphasizes the complexities of human-animal relationships, exploring themes of coexistence, mutualism, and the socio-cultural dimensions of these interactions.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of Climate Change on Animal-Human Relations:
There is an increasing concern regarding how climate change affects animal habitats and, consequently, human interactions with wildlife, as evidenced by studies exploring shifts in species distribution and behavioral adaptations. - Interdisciplinary Approaches:
The journal is witnessing a rise in interdisciplinary research that combines archaeology, anthropology, and environmental science, reflecting a more holistic understanding of human-animal relationships. - Ethnographic Perspectives:
Emerging themes include in-depth ethnographic studies that document contemporary human-animal interactions, particularly in marginalized communities, emphasizing the socio-cultural implications of these relationships. - Animal Welfare and Ethics:
An increasing number of articles address ethical considerations regarding animal welfare, including discussions on captivity, conservation, and the moral implications of human-animal interactions. - Integration of Modern Technology:
The use of modern technology, such as genetic analysis and digital modeling, to study historical animal populations and their interactions with humans is gaining traction, indicating a trend towards innovative methodologies.
Declining or Waning
- Classical Antiquity Focus:
Although the journal has published significant works on ancient texts and animal representations, there seems to be a waning emphasis on classical antiquity as a primary focus, shifting towards more contemporary and diverse contexts. - Narrow Taxonomic Studies:
There is a noticeable decrease in papers dedicated to the detailed taxonomic studies of specific animal species, suggesting a broader interest in interdisciplinary and thematic research rather than species-specific investigations. - Traditional Hunting Practices:
While hunting remains an important topic, the focus on traditional hunting practices and their ecological impacts appears to have diminished, possibly overshadowed by broader discussions of multispecies interactions and conservation.
