The inaugural GRADNAS Methods CO-LAB will focus strongly on 'methods' understood as the range of inter-disciplinary qualitative approaches most suitable for studying Asian security topics. We will pay acute attention to how scholars can pose the most useful research questions for studying this region; and develop innovative approaches and effective research designs to investigate Asian cases and complexities. This inaugural School will be led by 4 GRADNAS senior faculty, and will accommodate up to 30 international PhD student and post-doctoral/early career participants.
In memory of our dear friend and colleague, GRADNAS has established the Aileen San Pablo Baviera Prize, to recognize impactful academic publications on Southeast Asia-China international relations.
The winner of the inaugural Prize is:
Alvin Camba (2021) How Chinese firms approach investment risk: strong leaders, cancellation, and pushback, Review of International Political Economy, DOI: 10.1080/09692290.2021.1947345
