The native form of this personal name is Hirono Miwa. This article uses Western name order when mentioning individuals.
Miwa Hirono (廣野 美和, Hirono Miwa) is a Japanese political scientist and scholar of China who has published widely on China's involvement in peacekeeping operations. She is currently RCUK Research Fellow at the School of Politics and International Relations at the University of Nottingham and a visiting fellow at the Department of International Relations at the Australian National University.[1] Her PhD research at the Australian National University concerned the work of religious NGOs in China, and formed the basis of the book Civilizing missions: international religious agencies in China.[2]
Hirono became the subject of a visa controversy after the UK Home Office retroactively applied a rule concerning the amount of time a temporary resident could spend overseas to deny her the right to remain in Britain, leading her to accept a position at the Kyoto University of Foreign Studies in her native Japan. This decision was widely criticized by higher education practitioners as undermining Britain's ability to attract and retain highly skilled foreign scholars.[3][4][5]
