Special Issue
Inflection Point 2020: Coronavirus, Census and Elections for AAPIs?
Editorial Team: Natalie Masuoka, Gilbert C. Gee and Melany De La Cruz-Viesca
 
Submission Deadline: Monday, June 15, 2020
Email to: nexus@aasc.ucla.edu
 
The year 2020 will reshape the future landscape of the United States and the world. As a watershed year in which three major events occur: the coronavirus pandemic, decennial census, and a presidential election. The convergence of these three could bring about wildly different outcomes that it represents an inflection point for our social, economic, health and political future.  Issues at stake include fair political representation, faith in political institutions, affordable health care, protection of civil liberties, equitable economic recovery and immigrant rights. AAPI Nexus Journal asks what are the implications for the next ten to twenty years?  We invite authors to share original research, resource papers, and informed opinion essays offering a perspective of how the coronavirus, census, presidential election or the interaction among the three will impact Asian Pacific America.

AAPI Nexus solicits three types of papers: original research article, practitioner essay, and resource paper. Given the unusual urgency of the pandemic, we plan for a rapid turnaround issue. Articles will be published as an open access online edition and will be released on a rolling basis starting in Fall of 2020. Information about the special issue and paper types can be found at: http://www.aapinexus.org/journal/call-for-papers/.
