Article submissions can focus on any topic
pertaining to East Asia. The work is roughly divided
into the following sections:
- Greater China
(including Hong Kong and Taiwan)
- Japan
- Korea
- Southeast Asia
Beyond academic work, the publication also serves as
a discussion forum for current issues in East Asia
through editorials, interviews and book reviews.
SJEAA seeks submissions pertaining to China/Hong
Kong/Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and Greater East Asia.
Stanford has 2 affiliated centers, the Stanford
Center for East Asian Studies (CEAS) and the
Stanford Asia/Pacific Research Center (A/PARC). The
U.S. Department of Education designated Stanford
University as an East Asia National Resource Center
under Title VI of the National Defense Education Act
of 1958. The grant to the Center for East Asian
Studies partially supports the instructional and
programmatic needs of East Asian Studies at
Stanford, as well as carries out activities of
regional and national utility. SEANRC sponsors Asian
Languages courses such as “Chinese for Social
Scientists” and “Japanese Language, Culture, and
Communication,” as well as special courses on more
obscure Asian languages such as Uighur and Tibetan.
It also supports a number of outreach activities in
service to the region and nation, such as
professional workshops for teachers, development of
materials on Asia for use in schools, public
lectures on East Asia topics, and advanced language
practice groups. Stanford faculties in a dozen
departments teach and carry out research on East
Asia.
More than just the
publication, SJEAA is a focal point for students
interested in the East Asian region. The Centers
provide them opportunities to meet peers, faculty
and alumni with similar interests through faculty
nights, lecture series, discussions, film showings,
and cultural visits.
