New Directions in Taiwan History – Taiwan at the Center and at the Margins<\/strong><\/h1>\n

February 26-27, 2026
\nUniversity of Washington, Seattle<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/h2>\n

Hosted by the UW Taiwan Studies Program<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

This two-day workshop will bring together scholars working across the temporal range of Taiwan history to share and discuss works-in-progress and findings from their research projects.\u00a0 We especially welcome contributions on legal, environmental, Qing, gender, maritime, and Indigenous histories.<\/span><\/p>\n

Participants will be asked to pre-circulate a draft dissertation chapter, journal article, or book manuscript chapter. Senior scholars will comment on pre-circulated writing.\u00a0 All participants will be expected to read and engage in the workshop discussions. Proposed works in progress should not have been published or be under consideration for publication.<\/span><\/p>\n

Local accommodation (up to three nights), economy class airfare or ground transportation, and meals will be provided for all participants. PhD student participants need to be ABD (advanced to PhD candidacy).\u00a0 Past participants may submit proposals for new research, but new applicants will be prioritized.\u00a0 We especially welcome proposals from Ph.D. candidates, postdoctoral fellows, and contingent scholars.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the second workshop of a three-part series. The first was held at Princeton University last year and the final will be held at UC Berkeley in 2027.<\/span><\/p>\n

For consideration, send a proposal of 400-500 words describing the overall project and describing the excerpt (dissertation\/book chapter or article) to be presented at the workshop, as well as a brief (200 word) biography with contact information.\u00a0 If you are a Ph.D student, please indicate when you advanced to candidacy and when you expect to complete your dissertation.\u00a0<\/em> The accepted paper of 10,000 words will need to be precirculated and submitted by January 15, 2026. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
