About Us
Rice Asian Studies Review (RASR) is an undergraduate peer-reviewed journal promoting Asian, Asian American, and Asian Diasporic Studies research and creative work by students at Rice University. RASR aspires to offer a lively venue for intellectual exchange and production of knowledge against the backdrop of the intensifying twenty-first century globalization. In particular, reflecting the changing subject matters and methodologies of Asian Studies, RASR critically updates and expands on parameters of Asian Studies as a scholarly discipline through the publication of rigorously selected high-quality work by Rice undergraduate students. An interdisciplinary journal, RASR invites students of all specializations to participate in our endeavors of critical engagement with transnational Asia.
