Asst. Prof. Sol Iglesias has been awarded a Visiting Research Fellowship by the Center for Southeast Asian Studies at Kyoto University. She is working on a new project “Anti-Crime Campaigns in Southeast Asia”, comparing the drug war in the Philippines under Rodrigo Duterte with similar violent campaigns in Thailand under ex-prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in 2003 and the penembakan misterious (mysterious shootings) under the authoritarian Suharto regime in Indonesia in the 1980s. She will be based at Kyoto University for the Second Semester, AY 2024-2025.
