Publication Initiative
As part of the core mission of the Engaging With Vietnam conference series to promote new scholarship, we are dedicated to helping conference participants publish their work.
To date, we have published conference proceedings, a special issue in the Journal of Vietnamese Studies (JVS), and a volume in the IAS/Springer “Asia in Transition” series.
We currently have multiple publication projects underway following the 12th Engaging With Vietnam conference in 2021 held (virtually) in Kyoto, Japan in conjunction with the International Convention of Asia Scholars (ICAS).
EWV-Springer "Asia in Transition" Series Volume
Following the 11th Engaging With Vietnam conference, held in Leiden in 2019 in conjunction with the International Convention of Asia Scholars (ICAS), we assisted a group of participants to publish a volume in the IAS/Springer “Asia in Transition” book series.
This book series is a collaboration between the Institute of Asian Studies (IAS) at Universiti Brunei Darussalam and academic publisher Springer.
The volume which emerged from this project is entitled Vietnam at the Vanguard: New Perspectives across Time, Space, and Community. Edited by Jamie Gillen (University of Auckland), Liam C. Kelley (Universiti Brunei Darussalam) and Phan Le Ha (Universiti Brunei Darussalam and University of Hawaii at Manoa), it was published in 2021.
EWV-JVS Special Issue
In 2018, EWV offered the opportunity to interested participants of the 10th EWV conference (held that year in Ho Chi Minh City, Phan Thiet & Binh Thuan) to contribute to a special issue of the Journal of Vietnamese Studies.
This initiative was directed by Phan Le Ha (Universiti Brunei Darussalam & University of Hawaii at Manoa), Liam C. Kelley (Universiti Brunei Darussalam) and Jamie Gillen (University of Auckland).
Prior to submitting the papers to the journal for peer review, we held a workshop with potential authors to help strengthen their papers for submission. Logistical support for the summer workshop in 2018 was provided by University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City.
The special issue, entitled “The Collaboration Project between Engaging With Vietnam and the Journal of Vietnamese Studies,” was then published in early 2020.
