TitleTales from the field; an invitation to criminological research in Asia
AuthorsAtkinson-Sheppard, S.
Abstract

Doing criminological research in Asia can be a daunting challenge that is full of pitfalls for foreign researchers. Yet for those who can master the terrain, there is much to be learned and exchanged. In this seminar, we will explore the challenges that can arise in the field and how these challenges have been dealt with. Looking towards the 12th Annual Asian Criminological Society Conference, which will be held between 18-21 June, 2021 in Kyoto, Japan, we will also consider the benefits of presenting your work at international conferences and the opportunities that Asian contexts offer for international and comparative criminologists.
