Journal of Asian American Studies

JAAS solicits manuscripts that advance the journal's mission to showcase critical work furthering knowledge of Asian/Pacific America in its diversity. The journal welcomes submissions from all fields, including cultural studies, history, literary criticism, social science, and, of course, interdisciplinary studies of social policy, pedagogical/praxis and comparative race issues. JAAS also publishes book, media, and exhibition reviews.

Manuscripts should follow the documentary-note style, as specified in the latest edition of the CHICAGO MANUAL OF STYLE. All text must be double-spaced in a clear, easy-to-read typeface on 8.5 x 11 inch white paper. Text should be left justified with all margins at least 1 inch, and endnotes entered manually into the text (Do not use the "notes" feature of word-processing programs.) You may cite your work, but do not use wording that identifies you as the manuscript's author. Your name should appear only on the title page.

Submit three (3) copies of the manuscript and one (1) electronic copy in Microsoft Word (.doc) format to Huping Ling, Editor-Elect, Journal of Asian American Studies and Professor of History, Department of History, College of Arts and Sciences, Truman State University, Kirksville, MO 63501. Email: jaas@truman.edu

Manuscripts are subjected to blind reviews. If your manuscript is accepted for publication, you will be asked to submit one (1) electronic copy, in Microsoft Word (.doc) format, and two (2) paper copies of the final revised version. You also will be expected to obtain permission to reproduce any copyrighted materials (e.g., photographs) used in your article.
