Dear All,

The ACNZSN fortnightly newsletter is back after a short hiatus due to birthdays and anniversaries 🙂 Anyway, please find below the latest news and opportunities in Australian, Canadian, and Aotearoa New Zealand Studies 🙂 

 

News:

The Creator and Manager of ACNZSN, Associate Professor Jatinder Mann has taken up a new position as an Associate Professor of History at the National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan. His appointment was a part of the ‘NCKU 90 and Beyond’ Programme, which aimed to recruit 90 exceptional scholars from around the world, from Postdocs to Full Professors. He looks forward to continuing his work for ACNZSN and his editorship of the Journal of Australian, Canadian, and Aotearoa New Zealand Studies (JACANZS) from his new scholarly home 🙂

Wonderful public supporter of ACNZSN, Dr. Benjamin Jones will be having a North American launch of his recently published edited book: History in a Post-Truth World: Theory and Praxis. You can view more details here.

2022 Judith Binney Fellowship and Writing Awards

Applications for the 2022 Judith Binney Fellowship and Writing Awards close on Sunday 22 August 2021 at 5pm (NZST).

The purpose of the Judith Binney Trust is to support rigorous and imaginative scholarship of the kind that characterised Judith Binney’s historical writing. The Fellowships and Writing Awards support research and writing on Aotearoa New Zealand history or associated topics. This might include: social history; women’s history; Māori history and tradition; recent economic or political history; and historical interests arising from Aotearoa New Zealand archaeology, anthropology, and material culture.
