        The NUS Press Story NUS Press publishes academic books and journals, as well as general non-fiction. Our home market is Singapore and Southeast Asia, but our books are distributed internationally. We publish books of special relevance to Southeast Asia and we maintain a disciplinary focus on the humanities and social sciences.

We publish some 30 books a year.   NUS Press currently publishes two academic journals: China: An International Journal (for the East Asian Institute at NUS) and Southeast of Now: Directions in Contemporary and Modern Art in Asia.  We are accepting new journal proposals. Please contact us at npubox5@nus.edu.sg if you are interested to start a new journal. For more, see Journals.   The National University of Singapore Press is heir to a tradition of academic publishing in Singapore that dates back some 60 years, starting with the work of the Publishing Committee of the University of Malaya, beginning in 1954. Singapore University Press was created in 1971 as the publishing division of the University of Singapore. The University of Singapore merged with Nanyang University in 1980 to become the National University of Singapore, and in 2006 Singapore University Press was succeeded by NUS Press, bringing the name of the press in line with the name of the university.   Our publishing mission is to enable the dissemination and creation of knowledge through the publishing of scholarly and academic books; and to empower learning, innovation and enterprise for the Singapore- and Asia-focused global community. All NUS Press books must be approved by a Publishing Committee, drawn from the ranks of the academic staff at the National University of Singapore. NUS Press is currently managed by Peter Schoppert. Previous Director Paul Kratoska remains onboard as Publishing Director.

        From India to Germany:What My Father's Journey Tells Usabout Migration and the Kindness ofStrangers

        by Sunita Sukhana

        — An extraordinary story of migration — Contemporary history of the 70s and backgrounds to India, Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, the former Yugoslavia, the GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany He was the son of the Sikh priest, a successful 400-meter runner and, eventually, a migrant. In 1979, Bagicha Singh turned his back on his homeland and set off with a head full of dreams on the long, turbulent overland journey from India to Germany. It was the year the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan and the Islamic Revolution raged in Iran. A year whose aftermath continues to shape the world to this day. More than 40 years later, his daughter tells the story of Bagicha's adventurous journey. The result is a touching document on origin, contemporary history, and the meaning of migration.

        Faschismus

        Und wie man ihn stoppt

        by Paul Mason, Stephan Gebauer

        Was ist Faschismus? Eine Bewegung? Ein gleichgeschaltetes Herrschaftssystem? Für Paul Mason ist Faschismus nicht zuletzt ein Gedankengebäude. In dessen Zentrum steht eine ethnisch definierte Mehrheit, die sich als Opfer emanzipatorischer Bestrebungen sieht und alles ablehnt, was sie in ihrem Widerstand dagegen einschränken könnte: liberale Demokratie, Medien, Wissenschaft. Blickt man durch diese Linse auf den Hindunationalismus eines Narendra Modi, auf den queerfeindlichen Kurs bestimmter osteuropäischer Regierungen oder die Lügen eines Donald Trump, sind Übereinstimmungen unverkennbar. Wie der Faschismus der Zwischenkriegszeit gedeihen diese Phänomene in einer Phase tiefgreifender Umbrüche. Doch wie kann man sie aufhalten? Um diese Frage zu beantworten, bringt Mason seine großen Begabungen zum Einsatz: historische Neugier und das Talent, Theorien griffig zusammenzufassen. Die Hoffnung, man müsse nur die Unwahrheiten der Autoritären aufdecken, ist aus seiner Sicht naiv. Stattdessen müssen Liberale und Linke gemeinsam eine positive Gegenvision entwickeln und mit ökonomischen Reformen das Leben aller Menschen verbessern.
