令狐萍教授荣膺长江学者讲座教授
以及罗特格斯大学出版社“当今亚美研究”系列书籍编辑

著名美国华裔研究专家,美国人文社科教授协会华人教授协会会员,美国杜鲁门大学历史系教授令狐萍,被中华人民共和国教育部聘为“长江学者”讲座教授。

实施于2012年年初的新的“长江学者奖励计划”由中国教育部出资及管理,面向全球聘请知名海外教授与中国国内高等教育特选机构中的主要学者合作研究,共同推进中国高等教育与研究的国际化。该计划每年只有50个名额,聘请的学者们以数理及工程技术领域的专家居多,从事社会科学领域研究的学者仅有一两名。令狐萍教授将担任武汉侨务理论研究中心、国务院侨务办公室侨务理论研究武汉研究基地以及华中师范大学历史文化研究学院的讲座教授。在任期内(2012年10月-2015年10月)与国内学者合作,指导华人海外研究、开办讲座、启动前沿科研项目、发起新的研究机构和计划,并教授亚美研究的相关课程,同时指导博士论文的写作。

罗特格斯大学出版社(Rutgers University Press)于2012年夏启动亚美研究系列书籍的出版计划—-“当今亚美研究”,邀请令狐萍教授拟定丛书的构架与征稿范围,并担任丛书的首任编辑。亚美研究是一个充满动感与活力的研究领域,自创建之日起的四十多年来稳步发展。该丛书系列尤其关注该对亚裔底层族群、地区、新发展族裔社区的重大研究论题,力图将相关的论文集与书稿集中整理发行。目前,学术出版社发行的同类系列书籍为数不多,过去二十多年来, 罗特格斯大学出版社已积极地出版了许多部出色的该学科专著与文集,其中有一部分还获得了奖项。新的丛书系列将有助于提高该出版社的声誉并吸引更多优秀的手稿。

中美两国学术界对令狐萍教授学术造诣的肯定,不仅是她个人的成就,也为ACPSS又新增添了一道亮丽的风景线。令狐萍教授的学术贡献将有助于提升协会的声望与形象,并促进协会作为一个整体在中美人文社科领域的学术交流与互动。
