When: November 18-22, 2026
Where: St. Louis, Missouri
The University of Arizona Press is attending the 2026 American Anthropological Association conference in St. Louis! This year’s theme is “On the Verge.”
On the theme, AAA writes that it is, “an intentionally capacious theme that speaks to this moment and its many problems—the climate crisis and its tipping points, encroaching authoritarianism, the transmutations of racial biopolitics, the fate of neoliberalism, the development and spread of artificial intelligence, teetering institutions, to name a few—while also provoking reflection on what is left behind and what is up ahead. ‘On the Verge’ draws attention to both endings and beginnings, while inhabiting the space in between.”
We look forward to meeting you at the conference. Be sure to stop by our booth to browse our wonderful collection of new and recent anthropology titles, and talk to Senior Editor Allyson Carter. If you would like to set up a meeting with Allyson, email her at acarter@uapress.arizona.edu.
