Submission Deadline: January 10, 2025

The Environmental Justice Caucus invites submissions for this year’s Annette Kolodny Prize. The prize, established in 2002, is awarded each year to the best environmentally-themed paper presented at the American Studies Association annual meeting. Awards are presented at the ASA annual meeting the following year.

Submissions are judged by a panel of referees from the Environmental Justice Caucus. To submit, send your paper as an email attachment (MS Word preferred) to the referees listed below. Your paper must be received by 11:59 pm Eastern Time on Friday, January 10, 2025. Only papers as they were presented at the 2024 ASA annual meeting will be considered. Please do not send book or dissertation chapters on which your paper was based, or any other longer or altered version of your paper. If you would like to include images you showed during the presentation, please incorporate them into the paper, as one document.

To nominate someone else’s paper, please send the author’s name and email address to any one of the referees below and we will contact them.

We hope to complete the judging and announce the winner sometime in February 2025.
