Pop Myanmar: Call For Abstracts and Expressions of Interest

Pop Myanmar: A Special Issue of the Journal of Burma Studies: Call for Abstracts or Expressions of Interest

Despite the historic energy, vibrance and centrality of popular entertainment in Myanmar, these forms have not received the scholarly or media attention that they deserve. For this upcoming Special Issue of the Journal of Burma Studies, we aim to focus on popular culture, from its producers, means of transmission, to its elements of resistance, fandom, or even culture cringe. 

Examples of popular culture can include the performative, such as yokthe puppet theatre, live performances including comedy, street theatre and music, or than chat protests rhymes. Explorations of ethnic nationality cultural forms, or Burmese engagements with international texts and styles, whether in songs, websites or apps, short videos, or movies, from country to kPop to copy thachin are welcome as well. Other media or research pieces we encourage deal with textual or material culture, such as poetry, popular novels, advertising, fashion, or even everyday items such as snacks, condensed milk tins, Jawa motorcycles, cheroot smoking or KFC. 

Bearing in mind that the popular can be anything from sexy to saccharine, conservative to revolutionary, we encourage alternative formats. In addition to research articles, which will go through academic peer review and have a standard length of 7000 to 9000 words, like a record album, this special issue plans to incorporate some unique sections including short essays or reflections about popular culture, 1000 words or less “Liner Notes” and finally notes about an individual work or debate, which I am tentatively calling “Riffs”. 

Ideas or abstracts (250 words or fewer) can be sent to the JBS editor, Jane Ferguson at jane.ferguson@anu.edu.au by 15 August 2023.

Call for submission: The Pattana Kitiarsa Prize for Best Graduate Student Paper

The Pattana Kitiarsa Prize for Best Graduate Student Paper—Southeast Asia Council

The AAS Southeast Asia Council’s annual prize recognizes emerging scholarship in the field of Southeast Asian studies, from any disciplinary perspective. Graduate students at any stage, enrolled at the time of submission, are eligible and welcome to apply. The committee invites papers that fit the definition of “conference papers,” i.e. of a length and scope that can be presented on an AAS panel, and that make an intellectual and/or methodological contribution to the study of Southeast Asia.

The prize honors the memory of Pattana Kitiarsa, who was Associate Professor in the Department of Southeast Asian Studies, National University of Singapore. He was born in the northeastern Thai province of Nong Khai and maintained his roots in this Lao-speaking region. As a scholar, teacher, and friend he touched many people’s lives. Sadly, Pattana passed away from cancer at the age of 46. With his passing the field lost one of its leading scholars of Southeast Asian labor, religion, class, and media.

Please submit your 2023 AAS Annual Conference paper, proof of current doctoral program registration, and accepted AAS panel abstract in PDF format up until March 19, 2023 to seacpaperprize@gmail.com. Submissions should be up to 10,000 words maximumPapers received after March 19, 2023 will not be considered. Any questions regarding the prize can be sent to the same email address.

The award of $500 and a certificate will be presented at the 2024 AAS Annual Conference in Seattle, Washington. The Southeast Asia Asia Council of the AAS will also provide a sum of up to $400 to the winner of the prize to partially cover the cost of his or her travel to the 2024 Seattle Conference, where the winner will be recognized at the AAS Awards Ceremony.

Call for communication/ New Labour Regimes in Contemporary Southeast Asia/ Penang Conference 14-15 Dec. 2023 (deadline submission 12 May 2023)

New Labour Regimes in Contemporary Southeast Asia

Penang (Malaysia) 14 & 15 December 2023

As social, ethnic or religious, identity or position in the political hierarchy is more often pronounced in Southeast Asian societies, labour is rarely at the centre. In particular, labour does not often appear to be at the root of the formation of inequalities. In reality, the labour factor – including migrant labour – clearly fuels the regional dynamics of growth, and enables trade specialisation just as its mobilisation has, in the colonial past, enabled insertion into the international division of labour. Strangely, the concept of labour has too often remained on the margins of analysis of social changes in Southeast Asia.

This conference seeks to bring labour back in at the centre of the analysis. Offering a rare opportunity to pay tribute to the main oeuvres and pioneering authors in the field in Southeast Asia, it will open space to recent ongoing research on social changes with respect to  labour relations, working conditions, labour norms, and wages. While also providing a forum for discussion and debate, together with scholars, researchers, public intellectuals, diplomats and practitioners in the region during two days of scientific exchanges according to the following themes. The conference is organised in 4 parts, consisting respectively of an introductory keynote, a thematic session – parallel panels – and a round table of experts.

Themes:

Global Value Chains and the Transformations of Labour in the region 

Labour Law, Labour Unions, Industrial Relations, Wage Negotiations

Labour Income and Wages Distribution

Transnational Migrant Labour and Labour Norms

Submission deadline: 12 May 2023
