ICAS Book Prize – Tenth edition
What started as a small unknown initiative grew to become one of the largest book prizes for Asian Studies in the field of Humanities and Social Sciences. In 2003, the IBP was founded with the aim to bring a focus to academic publications on Asia in a more interdisciplinary context, expanding it beyond academic circles. This aim to increase the worldwide visibility of these publications has also encouraged a further interest in the world of Asian Studies.
Since the seventh edition in 2017, the Prize expanded to include prizes for publications in different languages. With this multilingual approach, in cooperation with a host of partners and sponsors worldwide, ICAS is increasingly decentering the landscape of knowledge about and in Asia.
Submitting books for IBP every two years might have become a routine process for many publishers now, but at the launch of the prize, it took some effort to engage the community to take part in this growing endeavor. We are grateful to all partners, sponsors, reading committee members, publishers, authors, and contributors throughout the years, who have played a significant role in the IBP becoming one of the leading Book Prizes in the field of Asian Studies.
