IACS Society Individual Membership
Through Individual Memberships, the IACS Society aims to foster scholarly exchanges across regions; to grow a community of students, faculty, independent researchers, and other individuals engaging with themes relevant to Inter-Asia Cultural Studies. The IACS Society organises academic activities to deepen the work of cultural studies in Asia and beyond. Specific benefits for individual members include: updates on developments in cultural studies in Asia; a discount for our flagship biennial conference; the right to nominate, vote, and run for the IACS Society Board; and, a special rate for an individual subscription to the Inter-Asia Cultural Studies journal (the special rate of 35USD per print annual subscription for regular members and 25USD for student members is not automatically included in the membership fee: IACSS members need to arrange this themselves when subscribing to the journal).
Once payment is completed, you will receive an email confirmation with a unique link to the registration form. Please check your spam folder. If you haven’t received the email, you can contact the admin at interasiaculturalstudies@gmail.com.
