CFP: THE OCTOBER ISSUE OF THE JOURNAL OF ASIA PACIFIC STUDIES


October issue of the Journal of Asia Pacific Studies

International Academy of Social Sciences (IASS)

 

The Journal of Asia Pacific Studies is calling for papers for its October issue. JAPS is published both online and in print. It is indexed by ebco and there are no publication fees. JAPS welcomes papers with an interdisciplinary approach to regional issues.


About the Journal:

The Journal of Asia Pacific Studies aims to serve as an outlet for research dealing with the interdisciplinary field of Asia Pacific Studies. As one of the most dynamic regions in the world, the Asia Pacific is of interest to a vast array of scholars and practitioners from many fields. Interest in the region is no longer limited to a few elite centers in the Global North but rather has spread to Latin America and other regions of the developing world. Moreover, Central America has started to look East as a way to diversify its traditional reliance on the Atlantic and North America. Due to the previously mentioned increased interest in the Pacific and Asia as its hub, the International Academy of Social Sciences (IASS) publishes the Journal of Asia Pacific Studies.

JAPS is indexed and catalogued in the Directory of Open Access Journals, EBSCOhost, the online Bibliography of Asian Studies of the Association of Asian Studies, and OpenJGate.

CFP: STREAMING AND SCREEN CULTURES IN THE ASIA-PACIFIC


Re-issued Call for papers

Streaming and Screen Cultures in the Asia-Pacific

(Palgrave Macmillan, 2022)


To the surprise of analyst expectations, at the end of 2019 Netflix recorded a record-high growth in subscribers and revenue outside of the United States, specifically in its Asia-Pacific region. The growth in this region is attributed to the establishment of regional offices and the commissioning of local productions, the success of which travels even further afield in the wealth of pan-Asian content making its way into Netflix’s global catalogue. But while Netflix occupies a dominant, though increasingly threatened position in the West amongst competitors such as Amazon, Disney+ and Hulu, in the Asia-Pacific it faces bigger challenges pitted against an abundance of well-established alternatives, such as Viu (Hong Kong), iflix (Malaysia), Voot (India) and HOOQ (Singapore). While there is an emergent body of work with a focus on streaming and screen cultures in the US and Europe, limited attention has been paid to the Asia-Pacific region. Our collection wishes to address this gap, exploring Asia-Pacific’s expansive services to produce a more comprehensive picture of its contemporary streaming culture. We are therefore inviting scholars to consider the expanding stream culture in Asia-Pacific territories. 

Our collection has already attracted some exciting new work, contributing to our understanding of visual media and its contemporary cultural significance in China, Japan, South Korea, India, Thailand, and Australia. However, we are aware that our collection is incomplete. The aim of this re-circulated CFP is to therefore seek chapters that specifically explore or engage with content, technologies or viewing practices in the Australasia and Southeast Asia region.

In our previous CFP we invited scholars to engage with the following. This is, however, by no way a set list. 

  • Soft power
  • Production, distribution and reception context—nationally and internationally
  • Streaming and pop culture: narratives, forms, aesthetics, themes
  • Identity—national and regional identities
  • Gender, sexuality and sexism in visual streaming culture
  • Internationalisation and decentralisation of local/regional content
  • Media imperialism
  • Markets and audiences: viewing habits (weekly release, binge-watching, live streaming, mobility of screens), accessibility (freemium model, VOD), demographics 
  • New media, new technologies, new platforms
  • Terrestrial vs. cable vs. streaming television
  • Copyright and censorship issues


Please send a biography (no more than 150 words) and a 300 word abstract to our email asiapacificscreencultures@gmail.com by 31 January 2021.

CFP: "ASIAN-PACIFIC AND WORLD ORDER: SECURITY, ECONOMICS, IDENTITY AND BEYOND", CONFERENCE



"Asia-Pacific and World Order: Security, Economics, Identity and Beyond" International 
Studies Association Asia-Pacific Regional Conference 2019

The rise of populism and authoritarianism worldwide has caused friction to established orders and tested institutional strengths. In the Asia-Pacific the increasingly potent competition between major powers poses significant challenges to the stability and security of states and societies. The region has also witnessed the realignment and restructuring of middle powers’ alliances and foreign policies. The rising politicization of diaspora has affected domestic politics across the region. Competition in the South China Sea has the potential to fracture the status quo regionalism in Southeast Asia and create new coalitions and clubs of states. Climate change and disasters can make or break governments in the Asia-Pacific. Cyber-security has highlighted a new theatre of international security discourse.
