[CALS-ASLI] Asian Law Junior Faculty Workshop

Announcing Presenters for the 2nd Asian Law Junior Faculty Workshop (11 to 13 January 2021).

The Centre for Asian Legal Studies (CALS) and the Asian Law Institute (ASLI) is pleased to announce the selected Presenters for the 2nd Asian Law Junior Faculty Workshop (AsLJFW) from 11 to 13 January 2021. In its second year, the inaugural Asian Law Junior Faculty Workshop was convened on 13 June 2019 and was received with great enthusiasm amongst junior law scholars in the region and around the world. This year, 21 Junior Scholars were chosen from nearly 100 submissions and invited to submit their long papers for review. Following an intensive round of reviews by a diverse committee of leading Asian law scholars, 10 promising Junior Scholars have been selected to present their outstanding papers at the Workshop. They are (in alphabetical order):

• Akio Hoshi (Gakushuin University)
• He Qihao (China University of Political Science and Law)
• Marcus Teo Wei Ren (National University of Singapore)
• Michelle Miao (The Chinese University of Hong Kong)
• Min Yan (Queen Mary University of London)
• Roza Nurgozhayeva (Nazarbayev University)
• Sharon Kun-Amornpong (Thammasat University)
• Suprawee Asanasak (Thammasat University)
• Theodora Pritadianing Saputri (Parahyangan Catholic University)
• Wendy Ng (University of Melbourne)

CONGRATULATIONS!

The Workshop was initially scheduled to be held in person, in conjunction with the 17th ASLI Conference in New Delhi in June 2020. However, due to restrictions in travel, the Workshop was postponed. It will now be held virtually over 3 half-day sessions from 11-13 January 2021.

At the Workshop, established Asian law scholars will review and comment on their assigned Junior Scholar’s paper followed by a constructive discussion among all participants. This process aims to provide a meaningful learning experience for promising Junior Scholars and create valuable links between the next generation of leading Asian law scholars and current leaders in the field of Asian legal studies.

In order to provide an even more productive experience for our Junior Scholars, we have this year included two exclusive Masterclasses relating to publishing books and journal articles.
