New Perspectives in Southeast Asian Studies publishes academic books that focus on historical and contemporary problems in this dynamic region, from local issues through global interconnections. While the series as a whole covers cultural, economic, environmental, political, and social issues, individual titles aspire to the fine-grained research and theoretical innovation long associated with scholarship on Southeast Asia. Editorial work is a collaborative effort between the University of Wisconsin Press and the University's Center for Southeast Asian Studies, a National Resource Center which has promoted the study of this region for forty years.

Prospective authors: Please refer to the UW Press guidelines for submitting proposals. Direct queries to acquisitions editor Gwen Walker gcwalker@uwpress.wisc.edu
