Amsterdam University Press (AUP) is a leading publisher of academic books, journals and textbooks in the Humanities and Social Sciences. With a print and eBook program of high-quality, peer-reviewed books, the press stands for scholarly excellence, global presence, and engagement with the international academic community. AUP is home to some of the world’s best scholarship in Asian Studies, Film History, and Popular Visual Cultures.
AUP publish a range of titles on Asian Cinemas and Film History that move from the political realm of fandom in India to studies on queer imaginaries in the Chinese-language film and cultural landscape. These subjects are supported by two key book series. The first, Asian Visual Cultures, focuses on visual cultures that are produced, distributed and consumed in Asia and by Asian communities worldwide. It seeks to explore how the texts and contexts of Asian visual cultures shape, express and negotiate new forms of creativity, subjectivity and cultural politics.
The second series, Critical Asian Cinemas, engages with films produced in Asia and by Asian auteurs. Books in the series emphasize the capacity of film to interrogate the cultures, politics, aesthetics, and histories of Asia by thinking cinema as an art capable of critique. It includes studies that critique the aesthetics and ontology of the cinema, but also the concept of Asia itself.
Both series are managed by Senior Commissioning Editor Maryse Elliott
(m.elliott@aup.nl) who is accepting book proposals.

Since its establishment in 1956, Hong Kong University Press has grown from a publisher of only a few titles to one that releases up to 50 new titles a year from leading scholars around the world. All Press publications undergo a rigorous peer review process before they are accepted for publication. As a unit of the University of Hong Kong, Asia’s most prominent English-speaking university, we publish most of our books—especially our academic books—in English. With authors in North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond, our list has been global in its outlook long before globalism became a 21st-century buzzword. Building on our unique position in Asia, works published by the Press examine, critique, and celebrate Asia’s place in the world. These represent the full spectrum of academic disciplines, cover both historical and future issues, span all theoretical points of view, and range from in-depth local analyses through regional comparisons to global syntheses. While academics from every area of Asian Studies are represented on our list, we have gained particular renown for publications in cultural studies, film and media studies, and Chinese history and culture.
We have gained particular renown for publications in cultural studies, as well as film and media studies. Crossings, edited by Poshek Fu and Man-Fung Yip, is one of our most highly regarded book series on Asian cinema and media culture, investigating global and regional Asian cinema and media from cross-disciplinary and cross-methodological perspectives. The New Hong Kong Cinema series focuses on the complex new cultural and political spaces of the 1980s in Hong Kong that produced the cinematic achievements of the period. Popular culture, cinema, and film history are also often central to our books published under other prolific series, such as Queer Asia and Transnational Asian Masculinities. Our Maoist Laughter, edited by Ping Zhu, Zhuoyi Wang, and Jason McGrath, has been awarded Choice’s Outstanding Academic Title 2020.
