*About the Network e-seminars*

The Media Anthropology Network e-seminars
<https://lists.easaonline.org/postorius/lists/medianthro-easaonline.org.lists.easaonline.org/>
are
email-based discussions centred on media anthropology-related papers (e.g.,
working papers, published materials) or events (e.g., follow-up seminars on
workshops or panels). Discussions typically run over a two-week period,
with discussion materials circulated in advance by the Network Convenors.
Each e-seminar features a moderator and discussants to facilitate
discussion; however, all list members
<https://lists.easaonline.org/postorius/lists/medianthro-easaonline.org.lists.easaonline.org/>
are
welcome to participate. Many authors find the constructive feedback
valuable in enhancing their manuscripts for publication.
