WELCOME









Imagine a space where academic insight meets public curiosity — a conduit that serves to bridge the gap between scholarly research and everyday conversations in innovative and creative ways.

Welcome to Anthrōprospective — a dynamic journal based in Naarm (Melbourne) that creates translation spaces for sensemaking. Through meticulously crafted articles, thought-provoking interviews with leading social scientists, and interactive in-person salon events, Anthroprospective fosters a community of curious minds eager to explore diverse perspectives on current social issues through an anthropological lens.

Our mission is to inform and inspire, facilitating deeper dialogue on the systemic issues shaping our world today. Join us in redefining the boundaries of knowledge and fostering civic dialogue as an antidote to polarisation. Let's make sense of our complex yet rich human experience together.
