| 研究実績の概要 |
For the period 2021-22, I was still not able to carry out field work. Though I have continued to gather archival material from short research assignments by researchers based in India. I have completed and submitted three chapter articles, two have been accepted for publication and one has already been published. All of them are linked to my overall research theme.

理由
I am hoping to do my first round of field work this August 2022. If Covid restrictions do not prevent travel. Meanwhile I have made various presentations at zoom conferences, seminars and workshops that are linked to my Kaken grant.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
I am in the finalization stages of the paper titled ‘Pulse in Muscle and Fin: Monsoons, fish and the biological river in 19th century British India’, which was presented at the Twelfth International Convention of Asia Scholars (ICAS 12) at Kyoto (online) from 24-28 August 2021.
Simultaneously, I am also working on the second paper the 3rd draft of which should be ready soon. This paper is titled ‘The making of the Cusec river in British India’ and is based on the collection of the private papers of British colonial irrigation engineers.

| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
I hope to go for field work to India this August. I have also been selected to join an international team of scholars by the CIFAR (Canadian Institute for Advanced Research) under a programme called “The Future of Being Human” .
As part of this programme, this team aims to develop a global, interdisciplinary and diverse research network on new approaches to global water/river governance based on the idea of river kinship (see abstract). I will be attending in-person the first workshop this June 6th to 8th 2022. I hope to use my Kaken grant to cover some of the expenses of this visit.
