Dear Colleagues,  

I hope this message finds you all well.  

My name is Aysun UYAR MAKIBAYASHI. I am an associate professor at Doshisha University (Kyoto, Japan) and acting secretary of the ICAS Book Prize in Japanese. I would like to inform you about the call for the ICAS Book Prize. ICAS (International Convention of Asian Scholars) is a biannual convention organized by IIAS (International Institute for Asian Studies, based in Leiden University, https://www.iias.asia), since 1998. ICAS will take place in Japan for the first time (24-27 August 2021) and we initiated the first Japanese version of the ICAS Book Prize for this unique event. ICAS Book Prize was initiated in 2003 to support academic publications in the field of Asian studies. Since then, the same prize has been extended to Asia-related publications in French, German, Korean, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. This time we are starting the first ICAS book prize in Japanese and would like to invite all of you to consider submitting your academic publications for this exclusive prize.  

Please refer to the following link for further information on submission and submission rules (https://icas.asia/ja/ibp-2021-japanese-edition). Also, please note that your work can only be submitted by your publisher and our deadline is April 1.  

I will be happy to answer any question about the book prize. Lastly, I will also be happy if you could spread the word within your academic circles.   

With kind regards,   

Aysun Uyar Makibayashi (ウヤル槙林　アイスン) 

Acting Secretary
