Publications
We advise that several Special Journal issues are planned, as well as a collection of Monographs, from papers submitted to the CALA, that meet the requirements of submission, review and acceptance. The papers selected will all be published with Top-Tier Ranking journals, and their Publishers. Here, ample assistance will be provided to revise manuscripts for publication.
Please note that the CALA represents a fully Non-Profit Organization, and all publishing is FREE. The CALA refuses to implement a pay to publish system, and will always endorse a meritocratic environment for academics, thus refusing to in any way adopt any system that requires the implementation of paid fees. Furthermore, the CALA will always source funding and grants from funding agents to assist those who need funding to access Linguistic Anthropology.
