AlterNative: An International Journal of Indigenous Peoples


Call Deadline: 31-Dec-2009 

AlterNative seeks papers in indigenous languages 

The world is currently facing a crisis in the revitalisation of indigenous 
languages. On average, every fortnight an indigenous language becomes 
extinct as sole surviving speakers pass away or indigenous languages are 
overwhelmed by those of a dominant culture. In line with this ethos, 
AlterNative aims to publish one article in its original language per issue. 

AlterNative: An International Journal of Indigenous Peoples is a 
multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal which aims to present indigenous 
views from native indigenous perspectives. We are dedicated to the 
analysis and dissemination of indigenous knowledge that belongs to 
cultural, traditional, tribal and aboriginal peoples, as well as first 
nations, from around the world. 

Papers should respond to one or more themes of the journal: 

- Origins 
- Place 
- Peoples 
- Community 
- Culture 
- Traditional and oral history 
- Heritage 
- Colonialism 
- Power 
- Intervention 
- Development 
- Self-determination 

Submission and deadlines 

Articles should be in an indigenous language and address the themes of the 
journal. AlterNative primarily publishes substantive articles that address 
a particular indigenous issue or theme. Each article should be accompanied 
by a 100-150 word abstract in English. 

Submissions received before 31 December 2009 will be considered for our 
first general issue of 2010. However, we accept submissions throughout the 
year via our online portal. 

For more details, please visit our website: http://www.alternative.ac.nz/ 

Or contact us directly to discuss your planned submission on 
editorsalternative.ac.nz <http://alternative.ac.nz/>  

Please note: All submissions will be subject to our peer review process. 
The Editors retain discretion at all stages of the publication process to 
accept or reject an article.
