BAJS Conference
Papers are presented in a variety of specialist areas and offer an opportunity to keep abreast of current scholarly thought and research in Japanese Studies. In addition, there is a plenary session to which the Association, with the support of sponsors, invites well-known academics and public intellectuals. Some of the papers presented at the conference are published in the Association's publication, Japan Forum.
The Conference is open to non-members who share an interest in Japanese Studies.
The BAJS Conference in 2010 will be held at SOAS in London on 9-10 September.
Call for Panels/Papers
BAJS would like to invite you to submit a proposal to be considered for our Annual Conference to be held this year at SOAS, University of London on Thursday 9th and Friday 10th September 2010.
Priority will be given to proposals for panel sessions, but individual academic paper submissions will also be considered for inclusion into an appropriate panel.
Panel sessions are welcome to take any format (e.g. mini workshop; roundtable discussion; presentation of an existing project; or traditional chaired series of papers format).
All subjects falling in the remit of Japanese studies are welcome; postgraduate students are eligible to apply for funding assistance to present at the conference. (See Conference Support)
