Announcing HYI Cross-national Interdisciplinary Research Grant recipients

This new HYI grant is offered for two or more Asia-based HYI alumni to collaborate on a cross-national, cross-disciplinary research project, likely to result in a publication. This new initiative is intended to help compensate for pandemic isolation by encouraging more communication across countries, disciplines, and generations.

We are pleased to announce that two projects will receive the HYI grant for the 2022-23 year:

• Interdisciplinary approach to East and Southeast Asian historical linguistics: a case study of Sino-Vietnamese không (Nguyen Tuan Cuong, Vietnam Academy of Social Sciences; Phan Thi Huyen Trang, VNU-Hanoi; Shimizu Masaaki, Osaka University)
• Patriots without Borders: Nationalism and Mobilization across Ethnic Chinese Communities in Asia (Jay Chen Chih-Jou, Academia Sinica; Chong Ja Ian (National University of Singapore); Chulaluk Nakwattanaset (Mahidol University); Wu Wen-chin (Academia Sinica)
