The Call for Papers for our special issue on The #Decolonisation of #Japanese Studies is now on our website. We are interested in contributions from any field of study and welcome interdisciplinary papers. Abstracts should be submitted by 20 July 2022. think.taylorandfrancis.com/special_issues…

Just come across the following survey about the restrictions for entry into #Japan and its impact on those of us who do academic work related to Japan. I would encourage people to take part. #Sakoku #JapaneseStudies wmsas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_08…

I am shocked to hear about the problems being faced by students trying to get appointments so that they can get their visas to go to #Japan to study on their year abroad. I am currently preparing a letter to send to the Japanese Embassy in my capacity as President of BAJS.

Another Letter (in my capacity as President of BAJS) to the Japanese Ambassador in London - this time about the problems students are facing getting visas to start their studies in #Japan. #Sakoku hoodcp.wordpress.com/2022/08/22/ano…
