Dear Sir/Madam,
On behalf of the Stanford Journal of East Asian Affairs, I would like to extend a warm invitation to students of your institution to submit their work for the upcoming 2011 issue.
The Stanford Journal of East Asian Affairs showcases outstanding papers on East Asia and Southeast Asia written by undergraduate and graduate students; it is one of the few publications in existence with such a mission. SJEAA accepts original articles from all academic disciplines pertaining to China/Hong Kong/Taiwan, Japan, Korea and Greater East Asia (including Southeast Asia). Published editions of the journal include topics such as politics, international relations, economics, history, literature, and the arts. Supported by the Stanford Center for East Asian Studies, SJEAA is currently distributed internationally and regularly receives submissions from leading universities in the US and abroad.
SJEAA is currently accepting submissions for our 2011 edition, and welcomes submissions from students at your institution. We also accept book review submissions for books whose first publication date is between 2008 and 2010. Book reviews should be above 900 words in length.
The deadline for submissions is September 30, 2010. I would greatly appreciate if you could circulate the submissions flier attached to graduate and undergraduate students in your department.
SJEAA also offers subscriptions to biannual print editions completely free of charge (including mailing costs). If you or your department is interested in receiving the journal, please send us your department's mailing address. You can view our previous editions online athttp://www.stanford.edu/group/sjeaa/.
We look forward to fostering closer ties with you in the future. Do not hesitate to contact me by email at xinshan@stanford.edu should you have any questions. In addition, if there is a more appropriate contact person in the department (such as an undergraduate program coordinator, a graduate advisor, or an administrative director), feel free to let us know at any time.
Thank you very much in advance and I look forward to hearing from you in the future.
Sincerely,
Xin Shan
