The Journal of the Oriental Society of Australia (JOSA) has
been published annually since 1960 out of what is now the School of
Languages & Cultures at the University of Sydney. A peer-reviewed
journal, it carries papers in a range of disciplines, including
literature, history, linguistics, archaeology, media, philosophy and
politics, as well as substantial book reviews. Initially concentrated on
China and Japan, in recent years its regional cover has expanded to
include Korea, India, Tibet and South-East Asia.
