Evaluating the impact of Geographical Indication policies on small, traditional agri-food producers in Japan and Cambodia

在过去的一年里，我们忙碌地重访了日本的实地考察点，并参加了在新冠肺炎大流行期间无法访问的柬埔寨实地考察。柬埔寨实地工作于二零二三年二月恢复，涵盖五个新个案研究。2022年9月，我继续在日本进行实地考察，对清酒、葡萄酒、八丁味噌和柿子进行了案例研究。在新冠肺炎后的一年里，我参加了许多会议，包括在法国蒙彼利埃举行的一次重要的GI相关会议，我在会上发表了三篇论文。于二零二二年稍后，我们前往澳大利亚出席国际农村社会学协会大会，其中一项介绍是有关亚洲地理标志。于二零二二财政年度，有关GI的主要及次要期刊发表了三篇论文，尤其是一篇有关国际社会学的主要论文。

This past year included a busy schedule revisiting field sites in Japan and attending to those in Cambodia, which could not be visited during Covid-19 pandemic. Cambodia fieldwork resumed in February 2023, covering five new case studies. In September 2022, Japan fieldwork continued with case studies of sake, grape wine, Hatcho miso, and kaki.Many conference visits were included in the post-Covid-19 year, including a major GI related conference in Montpellier, France, in which I presented three papers. Later in 2022, a visit to Australia for the International Rural Sociology Association congress included one presentation on Asia-wide GIs. Three publications emerged in FY2022 in major and minor journals concerning GI, especially a major paper in International Sociology.
