​Call for Nominations
The New Zealand Asian Studies Society (NZASIA) is establishing a biennial Book Award to recognize outstanding scholarship and contribution to the field of Asian Studies. We are now inviting nominations from authors for the inaugural 2021 Book Award.

Nominated books should demonstrate a scholarly contribution to the study of Asia or Asian communities in New Zealand. Books must be based on original research and written in English. Both monographs (single and multi-authored) and edited volumes are eligible for the Book Award; however, new editions of previously published books, reference works, autobiographies and textbooks are excluded.

Nominations from all disciplines are welcome, particularly in the humanities and social sciences. Books bearing a copyright of 2019 or 2020 will be considered for the 2021 Book Award. Authors of nominated books must be current full members of NZASIA.

First and second place prizes will be awarded in two categories: monograph and edited volume. The prizes will be presented at the 2021 NZASIA Conference.

Nominations must be made by the author/s and should be accompanied by a written statement of around 500 words summarising the book’s originality and contribution to the field. Authors should also submit a digital copy (ebook or PDF) of the nominated book. Please send all nominations and queries to naimah.talib@canterbury.ac.nz.
