- Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Journal
-
Inter-Asia Cultural Studies, also known as the Movements project, is a transborder collective undertaking to confront Inter-Asia cultural politics. The question of culture is among the most important yet difficult facing Inter-Asia today. Prolonged histories of feudal ideology, patriarchy, heterosexism, and, within as well as between countries, racism and discrimination against subjugated peoples continue to block struggles for popular democracy. Long term complex-antagonisms generated by the uneven histories of global capitalism, colonialism and imperialism, the imposed nation-state structure and regressive forms of nationalist identity politics have rendered meaningful dialogues within the region very difficult. At the same time, the globalization and regionalization of technology, economy, and cultural production, and the recent breakdown of the Cold War structure, have opened up a unique moment for dialogues within Asia and internationally.

- Asia-Pacific Population Journal
-
This refereed professional journal contains articles, papers and notes that cover a broad range of population issues of interest to readers in the Asian and Pacific region in a form that is relatively easy for educated readers to understand. As much as possible, priority is given to the publication of articles and papers written by authors from the region or familiar with it in order to give them a forum to present their findings on population and development which other journals might not accept because of authors' weakness in English or the publication's limited interest in Asia and the Pacific. This strategy also stimulates professional scholarship and improved technical reporting in ESCAP developing countries.
