We are happy to announce that Summer 2017 issue of the Colorado Journal of Asian Studies has been posted. This issue contains articles on “Boys’ Love” in Japanese manga (Leandra Laws); the travels of the Japanese monk, Ennin (Kurt Schreiber); and representations of the May Fourth Movement in China (Angelica Powell). You can read all of these papers at https://www.colorado.edu/cas/sites/default/files/attached-files/cjas_6.pdf 

The Colorado Journal of Asian Studies is published annually by the Center for Asian Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder. We publish original, quality undergraduate research on almost any aspect of Asia or Asian culture and welcome submissions of original scholarly work from any undergraduate student in any department at CU Boulder or other universities. Authors of Asia-related research papers can submit them directly; we also hope that faculty members will encourage their students whose papers fit this description to contact us. All papers will be reviewed for acceptance by the journal editor.

We welcome papers that are at least 2500 words in length and that conform to the MLA citation style. The deadline for Summer 2018 submissions is May 15, 2018. All published work is freely available to the public. Previously published papers can be found at https://www.colorado.edu/cas/academics/colorado-journal-asian-studies.

Paper submissions and questions should be addressed to the editor, Colleen Berry, at colleen.berry@colorado.edu
