The Northeast Asia Council (NEAC) is one of four regional councils operating within the Association for Asian Studies (AAS). Created in 1970, these councils represent the interests of scholars working in their respective geographical areas.
Collectively, the four area councils and the Council of Conferences serve as the major policy body for the Association of Asian Studies, providing liaison between the Board of Directors and the members at large.
NEAC administers two grant programs: the Japan Studies Grants and Korean Studies Grants, and a distinguished lecture series on Japan.
NEAC administers the John Whitney Hall Book Prize, given annually to the author of an outstanding English-language book on Japan or Korea (more).
