EASA is a professional association open to all social anthropologists either qualified in, or else working in, Europe. It is a society of scholarship, founded in January 1989 at a meeting of eighteen founder members from fourteen European countries, supported by the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research. This meeting drafted the Constitution and elected the Association's first Executive Committee (1989-90), chaired by Prof. Adam Kuper, Brunel University of London.

The Association seeks to advance anthropology in Europe by organizing biennual conferences and by editing its academic journal, Social Anthropology/Anthropologie Sociale. This appears three times a year and is available free of charge to all paid-up members. EASA is a self-governing democratic body. No member may be elected to office more than twice in succession; the only exception are up to two members co-opted by the elected Executive so as to ensure the continuity of EASA's administrative and publishing functions. The composition of the successive Executive Committees shows the pan-European character of EASA.

The Executive Committee 2004 - 2006 is:

Dorle Drackle (President)
Helena Wulff
Eleni Papgaroufali
Andres Barrera-Gonzalez
Benoit De L'Estoile

(Non-elected committee members)

László Kürti
