Wherever I am, the world comes after me.
It offers me its busyness. It does not believe that I do not want it.
Now I understand why the old poets of China went so far
and high into the mountains, then crept into the pale mist.
"The Old Poets of China" by Mary Oliver

Starting March 2020, Asian Studies: Journal of Critical Perspectives on Asia will be using ScholarOne Manuscripts, an online platform that allows journals to receive manuscripts, contact reviewers, communicate with authors, and document each step of the publication process, from first submission and the revision process to copyediting and final publication.

ScholarOne Manuscripts automates many of the traditional functions of editors, supplying email templates, generating statistics, and sending timely reminders to authors, reviewers and editors alike, among others. It is however, flexible enough to be customized according to each journal’s needs.

ScholarOne Manuscripts is part of Clarivate Analytics’ ScholarOne platform, a “comprehensive workflow-management systems for scholarly journals, books and conferences.” Clarivate also manages the Web of Science database, one of the leading indexing systems for academic publications like books and journal articles.
