CFP: VERGE STUDIES IN GLOBAL ASIAS SPECIAL ISSUE 10.2 PROPOSALS



Special Issue 10.2 Proposals


Verge: Studies in Global Asias invites proposals for special issue 10.2, which will be published in Fall 2024.

Verge: Studies in Global Asias showcases scholarship on “Asian” topics from across the humanities and humanistic social sciences, while recognizing that the changing scope of “Asia” as a concept and method is today an object of vital critical concern. Verge publishes works that engage with the ways in which “globalization” requires us to understand the past, present, and futures of Asia. In doing so, the journal not only provides a critical space to think through the productive relations and generative discontinuities between Asian studies, Asian American studies, and Asian Diaspora studies, but also emphasizes multidisciplinary engagement—a crossing and engagement of the disciplines that does not erase disciplinary differences but uses them to make possible new conversations and new models of critical engagement.

Proposals should contain the following information:
  • A working title for the issue;
  • An abstract / CFP that outlines the issue’s focus;
  • A provisional sketch of how the issue might undertake the journal’s distinctive Convergence features;
  • A brief outline of potential authors and essay topics (these are meant to help the editorial collective imagine the shape of the issue);
  • A plan for how the special issue might connect to other academic projects (conference panels, symposia, etc.) or Global Asias Initiative programs; and
  • The CVs of the guest editor(s).
Please note that all special issues of Verge have open CFPs. Given the GAI’s emphasis on reimagining the conditions of possibility animating scholarly research on Asia and its multiple diasporas and laying groundwork for sustainable and sustaining intellectual exchange across disciplinary, institutional, and field boundaries, proposals that reflect these goals and articulate paths towards accomplishing them will be viewed especially favorably.

Proposals are due by January 15, 2022. Please direct all inquiries and submissions to verge@psu.edu.

If you would like to discuss a proposal with us, or have any questions about our publication processes, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please contact our Acquisitions Editors Kenneth Yung at kenyung@hku.hk or Yasmine Hung at yhungyy@hku.hk.


Submitting a Book Proposal

To submit a proposal, please include:
  • A statement of the argument or purpose of the manuscript, explaining how it will add to the existing literature on the topic
  • A table of contents, including a brief synopsis of each chapter
  • A sample chapter, if available
  • A word count of the project (including bibliography, notes, etc.) and details of other elements of the manuscript, such as illustrations, maps, or tables

About the Series

The series “Crossings: Asian Cinema and Media Culture” publishes books in English and Chinese that investigate Asian cinema and media from cross-disciplinary and cross-methodological perspectives. It situates Asian cinema and media within a global or regional framework and explores different dimensions of transnationality in relation to production, distribution, and reception. It also entails trans-medial interrogations of past and present media culture, looking into the complex interactions of media forms and how they have shaped aesthetic and social practices. Wide-ranging in scope and method, the series places special emphasis on cutting-edge scholarship that draws on careful archival research or derives from vigorous, insightful theoretical study.


About the Editors



Man-Fung Yip is an associate professor and chair in the Department of Film and Media Studies at the University of Oklahoma. Link.


Titles in the Series
  1. Jing Jing Chang, Screening Communities: Negotiating Narratives of Empire, Nation, and the Cold War in Hong Kong Cinema (February 2019)
  2. Wai-Siam Hee, Remapping the Sinophone: The Cultural Production of Chinese-Language Cinema in Singapore and Malaya before and during the Cold War (November 2019)

Forthcoming Titles
  1. Adrian Yuen Beng Lee, Malaysian Cinema in the New Millennium: Transcendence beyond Multiculturalism (Expected August 2022)
Malaysian Cinema in the New Millennium offers a new approach to the study of multiculturalism in cinema by analysing how a new wave of filmmakers champion cultural diversity using cosmopolitan themes. Adrian Lee offers a new inquiry of Malaysian cinema that examines how the “Malaysian Digital Indies” (MDI) have in recent years repositioned Malaysian cinema within the global arena. The book shines a new light on how politics and socioeconomics have influenced new forms and genres of the post-2000s generation of filmmakers, and provides a clear picture of the interactions between the commercial cinema and politics and socioeconomics in the first two decades of the new millennium. It also assesses how the MDI movement was successful in creating a transnational cinema by displacing and deterritorialising itself from the context of the national, and illustrates how MDI functions as a site for questioning and proposing a new national identity in the era of advanced global capitalism and new Islamization. Covering all these inter-related topics, Lee’s book is a pioneering and comprehensive work in the study of Malaysian cinema in the recent decades.
  1. Jeff Kyong-McClain et al eds., Chinese Cinema: Identity, Power, and Globalization (Expected September 2022)
In Chinese Cinema: Identity, Power, and Globalization, a variety of scholars explore the history, aesthetics, and politics of Chinese cinema as the Chinese film industry grapples with its place as the second largest film industry in the world. Exploring the various ways that Chinese cinema engages with global politics, market forces, and film cultures, this edited volume places Chinese cinema against an array of contexts informing the contours of Chinese cinema today. The book also demonstrates that Chinese cinema in the global context is informed by the intersections and tensions found in Chinese and world politics, national and international co-productions, the local and global in representing Chineseness, and the lived experiences of social and political movements versus screened politics in Chinese film culture. This work is a pioneer investigation of the topic and will inspire future research by other scholars of film studies.

CFP: 2022 SITUATIONS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS




2022 Situations International Conference for Graduate Students

Antagonism in Asia: The Fault-lines of Conflict in an Interdependent World

Jan. 28 -29, 2022 Venue: Online Zoom


It has been commonly thought that bringing the peoples of the world together through free trade and communications technology would create the prosperity that would in turn reduce conflicts between nations and between ethnic and racial groups. Instead, war and uprisings have plunged much of the Middle East into Chaos, while geopolitical rivalry has intensified between the two superpowers, the US and China. Furious and impassioned protests against China over an extradition law erupted in Hong Kong in 2019. Taiwan has sought to strengthen its ties to the US out of mounting fears of a military invasion from the mainland. Ethnic and religious conflicts have come to the forefront in Myanmar, where the crisis over the Rohingya people was a factor in both the country’s decision to ally with China and the coup that toppled its democratically-elected government.

We are looking for papers dealing with literary and cinematic representations of conflict — ideological, ethnic, racial, religious, or even sexual — in Asia. How have fiction writers and filmmakers dealt with this emerging landscape of conflict? What do efforts to grapple with the historical legacies of violence and atrocity, such as the Sino-Japanese War, the Pacific War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, or the massacres in Indonesia under Suharto, reveal about contemporary global and regional predicaments?

Some possible topics:
  • The rise of China as a world power
  • The meaning of communism in an age of global markets
  • The legacies of the Cold War
  • Migrant labor in Asia
  • A Pan-Asian future: utopian or realistic?
  • Inter-ethnic tensions in Southeast Asia
  • The war on terror in Asia
  • The Chinese Cultural Revolution and the West
  • Views of Imperial Japan across Asia
  • The Vietnam War reconsidered
  • Feminism, gay rights, and geopolitics
  • Religious persecution in Asia

Early inquires with 200 word abstracts are appreciated. We invite you to submit 4,000 word essays with abstracts by January 17, 2022. All correspondence should be sent to bk21eng-edit@yonsei.ac.kr.

Submissions should follow the Chicago Manual of Style (16th ed.), using only endnotes. For further details about the citation protocols, refer to our journal website.

CFP: MATERIALITIES AND MOVEMENTS IN A CHANGING EAST ASIA


Materialities and Movements in a Changing East Asia 

Anthropology News, SEAA section


The Society for East Asian Anthropology (SEAA) column in Anthropology News is excited to invite submissions for a new curated series: “Materialities and Movements in a Changing East Asia.” The breadth of this theme encourages a variety of contributions based on members’ original ethnographic research. Submissions can take the form of short essays (up to 1600 words and 3 images) and photo essays (up to 600 words and 8 images).

From the COVID-19 pandemic to contemporary geopolitical contests in East Asia, the circulation and management of materials – from commodities and viruses to artifacts and waste – continue to animate ethical and political questions that the region faces today. Tracking the circulation, distribution, and proliferation of materials across spaces can reveal the production of novel social worlds; the mechanisms of power that are engendered to control material movements; the work of giving care and value to things beyond their intended meanings and lifecycles; and the ecologies of human and non-human entanglements.

We invite scholars to explore the following and other related questions in this curated series: How can ethnography capture the rich and varied material landscapes of East Asia, replete with different textures, shapes, sounds, and forms? How do people mobilize sensoria to make sense of social, historical, and political changes in meaningful ways? How are understandings of place, personhood, and time constituted through material objects? What strategies are employed to make things move smoothly, or interrupt such moves, in regulatory processes? What critical insights can be generated from East Asia toward issues that are shared at a global scale? And how might one mobilize the complex entanglements between things and beings for both critique and repair? We invite contributions from scholars who are involved with a broad range of ethnographic research, from archival to digital, media, in-person, and remote fieldwork.

If you are interested, please send your 150-250 word abstract to Contributing Editors Aaron Su (aaronsu@princeton.edu) and Jieun Cho (jieun.cho@duke.edu) by December 15. For a photo essay, please also include 2-3 sample images. Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis, and articles in this series will be published in 2022. We look forward to receiving your ideas!

Anthropology News aims to provide a vibrant venue for creative, original, and accessible anthropological scholarship. We publish articles from members that address contemporary issues with original ethnographic research. Scholars of all stages currently possessing or anticipating SEAA membership are encouraged to participate. To learn more about what we publish, please check out previous articles here.

CFP: DIGITALLY-AIDED MOBILITIES IN THE POST-PANDEMIC ASIAN CONTEXT

                                        

Digitally-Aided Mobilities in the Post-Pandemic Asian Context 

May 19-20, 2022

Following the pandemic, the ways in which mobile bodies are being administered and governed are in sync with advanced techniques of demographic control, which manifests into increasing digital surveillance on mobilities. Conversely, the neo-liberal economic order reifies speed and mobility, while ‘deterritorialization’ continues to constitute an important paradigm for the ‘flows and networks’ in a globalized world. From within this apparent dichotomy emerges a thrust toward normativizing digitally-aided mobility, which has churned out a diverse range of digital apparatuses (for instance, apps that measure ‘proxemics’, most popularly, the contract tracing app; e-passes for public transports etc.) -- often guised as public health technology systems that seek to restrict, control, enable and negotiate mobilities across post-pandemic spaces. Departing from here, the conference seeks to examine the evolving nature of urban spatialities in the context of post-pandemic Asian cities: how it leverages digital infrastructures and how this forges links with a techno-futurist imagination of Asia.


Important Dates: Abstracts due: Dec 31, 2021

Decision on abstract: Jan 9, 2022

Draft paper due: Apr 22, 2022

It is hoped that select papers from the conference will eventually lead to publishable academic volumes. Amsterdam University Press has expressed strong interest in the project.

CFP: STUDIES OF THE CONTEMPORARY ASIA PACIFIC SERIES. HONG KONG UNIVERSITY PRESS


Studies of the Contemporary Asia Pacific Series
 


Hong Kong University Press is reaching out to rising and established scholars for new, outstanding scholarship (monographs and edited volumes) for our forthcoming new series, Studies of the Contemporary Asia Pacific series, co-edited by Dr. Tat Yan Kong (School of Oriental and African Studies) and Dr. Ramon Pacheco Pardo (King's College London). If you would like to discuss a proposal with us, or have any questions about our publication processes, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please contact our Acquisitions Editors Kenneth Yung at kenyung@hku.hk or Yasmine Hung at yhungyy@hku.hk

  • A curriculum vitae and/or other material describing the author’s background and expertise in the area

About the Series

This series is the flagship publication of the London Asia Pacific Centre for Social Science, based at SOAS, University of London and King's College London. ‘Peace and prosperity’ have underpinned the Asia Pacific region's rise in the international system since the end of the Cold War. This series seeks to understand the contemporary challenges to ‘peace and prosperity’. In particular, it seeks to understand the origins and dynamics of three issues, namely, the divergence between economic and social development as rapid growth has been accompanied by the worsening of relative disparities, the global constraints facing the region's export-led growth model, especially relations with the West, and the persistence of inter-state conflicts despite the necessity of closer regional integration.

Based on these comparative and international guiding themes, this series seeks to publish original monographs and, when appropriate, edited volumes on the Asia-Pacific irrespective of the methodological approach. The aim of the series is to publish scholarly works that are both conceptually sophisticated and empirically well-informed. While addressing scholarly issues, it is hoped that the series will also appeal to wider audiences with an informed interest in the region.

Forthcoming Titles

Lowell Dittmer ed., New Asian Disorder: Rivalries Embroiling the Pacific Century (expected April 2022)

In this collected volume, Lowell Dittmer and his team explore the recent political disorder in East Asia resulting from growing Sino-American polarization. The rise of China in recent years is widely regarded as a momentous shift in the global balance of power. China is now extending sovereignty into the East China Sea and the South China Sea, constructing a new set of global financial institutions and replacing “universal values” with technologically enhanced nationalism. The country’s “Belt and Road Initiative” is also tainted by the vast ambition to realize the “China Dream” within the foreseeable future. In response to China’s challenge, the United States has abandoned its “constructive engagement” policy towards the rising power and engaged in a trade war. Sino-American relations have been at a historical trough since the normalization of their relationship in the late 1970s. This book sheds new light on the current political disorder in the East Asian international arena. The new Asian disorder is analyzed from three perspectives: the first focuses on identity, the second on political economy, and the third on the triangular dynamic. This collection of essays concludes that, unless and until consensus can be reached on a coherent new framework for cooperation and rule enforcement among different stakeholders in East Asia, the current disorder may be expected to persist.

    WEBCAST CASA ASIA «500 AÑOS DEL ENCUENTRO ENTRE EL ESTE Y EL OESTE: EL HISPANISMO EN COREA DEL SUR»




    Webcast Casa Asia:

    «500 años del encuentro entre el Este y el Oeste: el hispanismo en Corea del Sur»


    En el marco del «Ciclo de conferencias de hispanistas de Asia-Pacífico» de Casa Asia y del Instituto Cervantes, se organiza el sexto webcast a cargo del profesor Jeong-hwan Shin, vicerrector de la Universidad Hankuk de Estudios Extranjeros y expresidente de la Asociación Coreana de Hispanistas.

    Corea del Sur se ubica en el extremo oriente de Euroasia y es el país más lejano a España que está en el extremo occidente de este continente. Sin embargo, ambas naciones comparten muchas experiencias históricas –sobre todo en el siglo XX– y tienen tantas similitudes como el hecho de estar asentadas en un territorio peninsular. El inicio de su reconocimiento mutuo –y como piedra angular del mismo–, fue apenas en 1955 cuando se empieza la enseñanza del castellano en una universidad coreana justo después de la Guerra de Corea. Desde entonces, el estatus del español ha cambiado y evolucionado mucho junto con el desarrollo de Corea del Sur. La ponencia versará sobre la historia que ambos países han compartido, la situación actual de su alianza, y la perspectiva del hispanismo en Corea del Sur.

    Presenta:

    Carmen Pastor, directora académica del Instituto Cervantes.

    Modera:

    Yasmin Paricio, coordinadora del departamento de Política, Sociedad y Programas Educativos de Casa Asia.

    Ponente:

    Jeong-hwan Shin, vicerrector de la Universidad Hankuk de Estudios Extranjeros y expresidente de la Asociación Coreana de Hispanistas (2019-2021).

    • 2016.1~2017.12: Presidente de la Asociación Coreana de Literatura Comparada
    • 2021.6: Presidente del Comité Organizador del Décimo Congreso Asiático de Hispanistas (Seúl)

    CFP: SIXTH ANNUAL MEETING OF THE MEMORY STUDIES ASSOCIATION (MSA), "SOLIDARITY"

                                   

    Sixth Annual Meeting of the Memory Studies Association (MSA)

    “Solidarity”

    Seoul, Korea, July 3-7, 2022


    The Memory Studies Association (MSA) invites proposals for its sixth annual conference, July 3-7, 2022. The conference will be hosted by the Critical Global Studies Institute, Sogang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

    The MSA is very enthusiastic to host its next annual meeting in Seoul, as the first one to take place outside of Europe. In the hope that the COVID-19 situation will improve, the MSA 2022 Program Committee has decided that the conference will be organised as an in-person event. We will closely monitor the status of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Korean government’s policy to ensure the health and safety of all participants. While the main events will be live-streamed, due to technical and financial limitations a fully hybrid event will not be possible. In order to accommodate more participants, however, Working and Regional Groups are also invited to organise a limited number of fully on-line events to take place in addition to the main conference program immediately before and after the in-person meeting. The MSA Forward and Methodological workshop will also take place on-line.

    The theme of this year’s conference is “Solidarity.” The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic—amid rising inequality and the climate crisis—have forcefully demonstrated the necessity and precarity of solidarity, as well as its contested nature. This has, in turn, brought to light the need to reflect upon the pivotal role of collective memory in constructing, reinforcing, or interrogating various forms of solidarity. We hope that the conference will provide an opportunity to bring together a range of different approaches and analyses for illuminating the multi-faceted and multi-layered dimensions of mnemonic solidarity. We particularly encourage proposals that critically examine the limitations of the prevailing epistemologies of antagonistic and/or cosmopolitan memory, de-centre global North perspectives, and explore new ways of imagining transnational mnemonic solidarity based on justice, mutual understanding, and recognition of differences. Of course, we also very much welcome proposals on all other areas of memory studies—especially those areas that have been relatively under-explored.

    Proposals are invited for panels, roundtables, and individual papers from members who are committed to traveling to Seoul for the in-person meeting. The MSA especially encourages panel proposals. The panel should, in principle, consist of 4 presenters, a chair, and optionally a discussant. The participant may appear as a presenter only once but can act as chair or discussant in more than one panel. The roundtable should consist of around 4-5 participants with shorter statements and discussions. More detailed information—including submission rules and guidelines—will be posted in due course on the MSA website, so please check back regularly for updates.

    • 2022 MSA-Seoul Conference Dates: July 3, 2022, to July 7, 2022
