The Society for East Asian Anthropology invites submissions for the 2015 Francis L.K. Hsu Book Prize. The prize of $300 is given to the English-language book published in the previous calendar year (2014) judged to have made the most significant contribution to the field of East Asia Anthropology. The prize is named for the late Francis L.K. Hsu (1909-2000), renowned cross-cultural anthropologist and former President (1977-78) of the American Anthropological Association.
Nominations for the prize may be made by authors, publishers, or interested third parties (with the consent of the author). Reference works, translations, textbooks, edited works, and anthologies are not eligible. Both members and non-members of S.E.A.A. are eligible.
Please send one non-returnable copy of the book to each committee member by June 1, 2015:
