The study of hunter-gatherer societies around the world, and in the Arctic and Alaska in particular, became a major field within the social and human sciences five decades ago. The goal of the Eleventh Conference on Hunting and Gathering Societies (CHAGS XI) is to continue the development of a unified field of hunter-gatherer studies. The general question of CHAGS XI therefore is how the results of the last 50 years and new research agendas can be utilized for the present and future. While many hunter-gatherers are forced to give up their ways of life and subsistence practices, they figure prominently in public discourses on ecological and ideological alternatives to industrial society. CHAGS XI will attract a variety of stakeholders in these debates, including indigenous representatives, NGOs, scholars, etc., from the U.S. and other countries. Based on fieldwork and research from the full spectrum of hunter-gatherer ways of life and from all perspectives scientific disciplines have to offer, the purpose of CHAGS XI is to bring hunter-gatherer studies back to the center of the human and social sciences. The conference will encourage discussions that will provide the social sciences and other research areas with in-depth understanding of hunter-gatherer societies in the United States, Arctic and globally. Through publication of the keynote addresses, results will be widely disseminated to local, national and international groups concerned with hunter-gatherer societies.Since 1966 CHAGS has brought together scholars from all over the world to share ideas about social science research. The goal of the Eleventh Conference on Hunting and Gathering Societies (CHAGS XI) is to continue the development of a unified field of hunter-gatherer studies. CHAGS XI will offer a venue for U.S. and international scholars to analyze the progress made in the social sciences and hunter-gatherer studies around the world, and in the Arctic in particular. This includes special project sessions, discussion panels, plenary presentations, invited talks by the leading hunter-gatherer scientists and representatives of the indigenous peoples. Special efforts will be made to ensure presence of as many project collaborators from U.S. hunter-gatherer communities, as possible. Moreover, its main theme will encourage discussions that will provide the social and natural sciences and other research areas with in-depth understanding of hunter-gatherer societies in global dialogue. Through publication of the keynote addresses, results will be widely disseminated to local, national and international groups concerned with hunter-gatherer societies. The conference will promote interdisciplinary collaboration and include activities for early career scholars. By incorporating indigenous and other stakeholder perspectives of the theme as an integral part, CHAGS XI will encourage these groups of people and scholars to learn from each other now and in the future.

对世界各地狩猎采集社会的研究，特别是在北极和阿拉斯加，五十年前成为社会科学和人文科学的一个主要领域。狩猎和采集社会第十一届会议（CHAGS XI）的目标是继续发展狩猎采集研究的统一领域。因此，CHAGS XI的一般问题是如何在现在和未来利用过去50年的成果和新的研究议程。 虽然许多狩猎采集者被迫放弃他们的生活方式和生存方式，但他们在关于工业社会的生态和意识形态替代方案的公共话语中占据突出地位。第十一届大会将吸引各种利益攸关方参加这些辩论，包括土著代表、非政府组织、学者等，来自美国和其他国家。 基于对狩猎采集者生活方式的全方位实地考察和研究，以及科学学科必须提供的所有视角，CHAGS XI的目的是将狩猎采集者研究带回人类和社会科学的中心。会议将鼓励讨论，这将提供社会科学和其他研究领域的狩猎采集社会在美国，北极和全球的深入了解。通过发表主旨演讲，将成果广泛传播给关注狩猎采集社会的地方、国家和国际团体。自1966年以来，CHAGS汇集了来自世界各地的学者，分享关于社会科学研究的想法。狩猎和采集社会第十一届会议（CHAGS XI）的目标是继续发展狩猎采集研究的统一领域。 CHAGS XI将为美国和国际学者提供一个场所，以分析世界各地，特别是北极地区的社会科学和狩猎采集者研究所取得的进展。这包括特别项目会议、讨论小组、全体会议介绍、主要狩猎采集科学家和土著人民代表的特邀演讲。 将作出特别努力，以确保尽可能多的美国狩猎采集社区的项目合作者的存在。 此外，其主题将鼓励讨论，使社会和自然科学及其他研究领域在全球对话中深入了解狩猎采集社会。通过发表主旨演讲，将向关注狩猎采集社会的地方、国家和国际团体广泛传播成果。会议将促进跨学科合作，并包括早期职业学者的活动。通过将土著和其他利益攸关方对这一主题的看法作为一个组成部分，CHAGS XI将鼓励这些群体和学者现在和将来相互学习。
