Mandate

Our mandate is to review books that focus on important current political, economic, and social issues throughout Asia and the Pacific region. Pacific Affairs accepts books for review from publishers and authors that have been published in the previous two years only.  We do not accept textbooks, reference materials, works of fiction, or literary analysis, translated works, or books where the main chronological coverage pre-dates 1900. We do not review books on art, theatre, or music.
