About
The William L. Holland Prize is awarded annually for an outstanding article published in Pacific Affairs during the preceding year that, in the opinion of the Editorial Board, best reflects the ideals of long-time editor Bill Holland in promoting international understanding of the spaces, practices, and peoples of Asia and the Pacific. We look for articles based on strong empirical research, preferably displaying a full awareness of local conditions, languages, and sources; argumentation that engages with a range of theoretical and comparative literature, and contains clear potential for cross-disciplinary appeal; and writing that is clear and cogent and appealing to specialists and generalists alike.
Please consider making a tax-deductible* donation to the William Holland Prize so that Pacific Affairs can continue to recognize and support excellent scholarship. The winner(s) of the Holland Prize receive a monetary award of $1000 CAD.
* Official tax receipts can be issued to persons from the following countries: Canada, USA, Britain and the special administrative region, Hong Kong.
