Asian Affairs
Asian Affairs is the RSAA’s quarterly journal. It addresses social, political, and historical subjects at the interface between scholarship, learned interest, journalism and personal experience. It is held by most major libraries globally.
About the Journal
Asian Affairs has been published continuously since 1914 (originally as the Journal of the Central Asian Society, and from 1931 to 1969 as the Journal of the Royal Central Asian Society). In addition to its widely cited commentary and original research articles, it carries an extensive and widely read book review section.
The Editor of Asian Affairs has scholarly support from an International Editorial Advisory Board of recognised experts in the geographical and thematic spcialisations of the journal’s remit. On administrative and publishing issues a separate Editorial Board is accountable to the Trustees of the RSAA.
Individual articles and entire issues can be purchased and downloaded from our publisher, Taylor & Francis.
