International Network of Sport Anthropology jobs and careers

About International Network of Sport Anthropology

Founded in 2020, INSA exists to support the ever-growing Anthropology of Sport. It connects scholars from all related backgrounds, providing a space to discuss ideas, gain feedback, and collaborate on publications. As Anthropologists of sport are found in disparate places around the world, INSA facilitates research across institutions, providing support and critique not always available in our home departments. INSA is intentionally ECR driven, with a view to nurture and develop the sub-field for the future. Senior scholars provide mentorship and guidance to the network, but key decisions are made by Early Career Researchers. INSA activities currently comprise: - The Working Group, a fortnightly meeting to discuss work in progress, held on Zoom (primarily for ECR). - Organising and hosting panels at anthropology conferences, such as the RAI, ASA and AAA. - Developing publications in the Anthropology of Sport. Our latest publication is a book entitled: Doing Anthropology in a Sporting World: Knowledge, Representation, and Collaboration in the Digital Age. In the future, we intend to put on an online seminar series, host workshops, organise our own international conference, and set up our own journal. If you would like to participate in these activities, please check out the blog for recent updates and get in touch with us directly.
