This journal publishes ethnographic research that explores the complexities of human experience across diverse settings.

The research often focuses on social dynamics, cultural practices, and the negotiation of identity and belonging within various communities, including migrants, indigenous peoples, and those in marginalized situations. The scope also encompasses the study of human-animal relations, the impact of conflict and disaster, and the role of technology and algorithms in contemporary life.
