Welcome from the Chair of the ASA

Welcome to the ASA conference for 2021, ‘Responsibility’, hosted by the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of St Andrews. For the second time in our history, we are holding the conference entirely online, but whereas the ASA2020 conference was a one-day, single-panel event, ASA2021 is a full international multi-panel conference...

Hosts

Anthropology has a long history in St Andrews, dating from the beginning of Andrew Lang's scholarly career in the 1860s and culminating in the founding of an independent department in 1979. Since then, the Department has championed innovative ethnographic and historical scholarship. In 1992, Social Anthropology was incorporated as a Department within the School of Philosophical, Anthropological and Film Studies. The Department is also home to the Centre for Cosmopolitan Studies, the Centre for Amerindian, Latin American and Caribbean Studies, the Centre for Pacific Studies, and the Centre for Minorities Research.

Theme

Panels were arranged within the following sub-themes: Extinction; Who speaks, and for whom?; Evidence; Health, disease and wellbeing; Morality and legality; Irresponsibility and failure. Read more detail of these sub-themes.
