NEW TAIWAN STUDIES JOURNAL TO BE LAUNCHED IN MARCH 2018
Share
A new peer-reviewed academic journal on Taiwan studies, ‘the International Journal of Taiwan Studies’ (IJTS) will be launched in March 2018 by Brill, a Dutch international publishing company specialising in the humanities.
The IJTS, cosponsored by Academia Sinica and the European Association of Taiwan Studies (EATS), aims to be a principal outlet for the dissemination of cutting-edge research on Taiwan. Once launched, IJTS will be published in the Spring and Autumn of every year. It will work to create a space for discussion among international scholars working across disciplines in the social sciences, arts, and humanities.
The theme of the inaugural edition will be ‘Taiwan Studies: State of the Field’, with Dr Ming-Yeh T. Rawnsley as Editor-in-Chief. It will follow a double-blind peer review system and intends to cover as wide a range of disciplines as possible. The deadline for submissions in the first edition is 31 March 2017.
IJTS welcomes submissions that are localised in focus, as well as research that is more global and comparative. 34 Authors are encouraged to position Taiwan and Taiwan-related issues within different global, regional, and local contexts and processes.
