CFP: STATE AND SOCIETY IN ASIA: PAST AND PRESENT, NEW YORK CONFERENCE ON ASIAN STUDIES


State and Society in Asia: Past and Present,


October 7-8, 2022. Syracuse University


We invite submissions from scholars across all disciplines on all topics related to Asia and Asian Studies. We are particularly interested in topics related to our main theme: “State and Society in Asia: Past and Present.” In bringing scholarly perspectives to these current events, questions that interest us include: What historical legacies of the state persist in contemporary Asia? What roles do technology and urban development play in extending state power to unprecedented degrees? Conversely, how does a vacuum in state infrastructure in countries like Afghanistan create conditions for regime change? Can countries like Myanmar continue to isolate themselves and not suffer social and economic hardships? Contemporary artists, filmmakers, and environmental activists frequently challenge and critique these developments. How do regime changes unsettle and re-arrange key local and national cultural constituents and what impact do these changes have on environmental history, archaeology, and cultural heritage sites?

Submit your paper or panel abstract by June 15, 2022 here.

CFP: ASIAN LIVES/ASIAN STUDIES IN THE POST PANDEMIC ERA


2021 NYCAS Conference

Asian Lives/Asian Studies in the Post Pandemic Era


In association with the New York Conference on Asian Studies (NYCAS), SUNY-Brockport will host the 2021 NYCAS Conference centered on the theme of “Asian Lives/Asian Studies in the Post Pandemic Era.” The conference is open to all, and will consist of two days of sessions on areas concerning Asian Studies. 


Dates: October 1-2, 2021

​Format: Hybrid

This conference is dedicated to looking forward to post-pandemic life as well as examining the impact of pandemic life - both subtle and profound, positive and negative- on Asian lives and the field of Asian Studies. How did the pandemic impact Asian lives? In what ways did the pandemic change the trajectory of Asian lives and Asian Studies and how should we respond? What factors influenced the field in the past year and how will that affect behavior and research going forward?

Scholars may propose topics on, but not limited to, the pandemic’s impact on Asian lives and the field of Asian Studies (pre, concurrent, or post) or focus on any range of significant and timely concerns such as:
  • Politics, Policies, Governing: Globalization and De-Globalization, Regulation and Trade; Authoritarianism and Human Rights; Economies, Finance, Tourism;
  • Health and Education: Asian Public Health Responses, Modes of Delivery, Agendas and Curricula, Budgets and Reform
  • The Digital: Digital and Technological Acceleration; Digital Consumption; Digital Entrepreneurship
  • Culture and History: History and Values; Stigmatization and Discrimination; Arts, Creativity and Imagination; Nationalism, imperialism, colonialism; identity, sexuality, LGBTQ+ rights; Spirituality and religion
  • The Environment: Eco-Systems, environmental philosophies and politics, sustainability
