NIAS Press

On December 31, 2023, NUS Press completed its acquisition of the publishing operations of NIAS Press, the publisher of the Nordic Institute of Asian Studies in Copenhagen, Denmark. While the Nordic Institute of Asian Studies has officially ceased operations, the research published by NIAS Press will continue to be made available around the world through the new arrangements with NUS Press.

Customers and bookshops in Mainland Southeast Asia may continue to place orders for NIAS Press titles from Silkworm Books.

We are working with the series editors to determine which of the NIAS Press book series will continue under the NUS Press imprint. Welcome to the NIAS Press list!

Titles which show as "unavailable" below are unavailable in Singapore, and should be available (or shortly will be available) in other territories.
