CFP: KOREA COMPETENCE WEEK 2023 FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS AND PHD CANDIDATES, FREIE UNIVERSITÄT BERLIN




Korea Competence Week 2023 for Graduate Students and PhD Candidates,



The Korea-Europe Center at the Institute of Korean Studies, Freie Universität Berlin, (FU-IKS) is pleased to announce the Workshop Series <Korea Competence Week 2023> for graduate students and PhD candidates intending to enhance the academic and political competence of those involved in Korea-related research and politics.

The workshop series comprises the following four parts: (In each workshop, more experts will join as instructors.)

1. Methodology Workshop
  • Monday, 25th September 2023
Instructors: 
This workshop is designed to invite Ph.D. students and scholars researching themes related to Korea to meta-analysis and self-reflection of their research. Over the course of this workshop, participants will gain greater awareness of implicit presuppositions, guiding perspectives and values, and blind spots of their own research design. This type of training will enable participants to a more conscious and reflective handling of research methods and the theoretical baggage that comes with them. It will also enhance participants intercultural competence in an increasingly globalizing academic context, and especially that of area studies.

Process of Workshop:

(1) Each participant is expected to give a presentation (20 min.) of the methodology based on the methods of his or her current research.

(2) Each presentation will be followed by a round of comments and discussion with the possibility to focus in-depth on key issues in participants research designs.


2. Publication Writing Workshop
  • Tuesday, 26th September 2023
Instructors: 
This workshop focuses on the dos and don’ts of academic research paper writing and publication. Participants will enhance their ability to write academic papers and how to clearly structure them, focusing on key components such as abstract writing and preparing the finished paper for submission to a journal. Participants will also learn about publication processes. With the help of an experienced journal editor, they will learn how to choose the right journal for their paper, navigate peer review, and think strategically about building visibility for their expertise.

Participants will be expected to bring a short sample of their writing, preferably a paper there are currently working on. This workshop will employ a set of peer-tutoring methods among a variety of other techniques.


3. Policy Paper Writing Workshop
  • Wednesday, 27th September 2023 lecture and group work
  • Thursday, 28th September 2023, morning session: group report and evaluation
Instructors: 
This workshop teaches basic techniques and strategies of writing policy papers. Participants have the opportunity to gain knowledge, skills and first-hand insight from people, who are engaged in policy paper writing. The workshop intends to illuminate the context in which policy papers are produced, why they are written, and how they potentially influence decision making processes. The workshop will consist of interactive training sessions, group work and practical exercise.


4. Strategic Dialogue Workshop
  • Thursday, 28th September 2023, afternoon session: lecture
  • Friday, 29th September 2023 including group work and presentation
Instructors: 
Strategic dialogue has been a term used with increasing frequency, both in private and public sectors. It is generally understood as denoting a processual development among groups or teams intending to reach a common understanding concerning goals, concepts or projects in view of a future. Nevertheless, what does "strategic dialogue" exactly mean? How does it differ from a regular "bilateral" or "multilateral" meeting? Is it a formal or informal process? How does it compare and contrast with 1.5 and 2-track discussions? Can academics participate in strategic dialogues, or is it a format limited to practitioners, mostly from the field of politics? Who sets the strategic agenda and how is strategic dialogue organized in practice?

The workshop will examine these and other questions providing a comprehensive overview of the instrument of strategic dialogue. The seminar will host speakers with rich experience and a proven track record in conducting such strategic dialogues with partners in Asia and, in particular, in both Koreas. The guest speakers will share their expertise and provide hands-on experiences. This workshop will also include a model-strategic dialogue in which participants will have the opportunity to prepare and simulate a strategic dialogue under the guidance of experienced practitioners in the field.

CFP: PRECARIOUS RACIAL SUPERIORITY: IMPERIAL PRESTIGE AND DEVIANCE IN COLONIAL ASIA, CA. 1800-1940


“Precarious Racial Superiority: Imperial Prestige

and Deviance in colonial Asia, ca. 1800-1940” Workshop


The rhetoric of racial and/or civilizational superiority was unequivocally the basis on which imperialism and colonial rule were legitimised in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Difference between ‘colonisers’ and the ‘colonised’, and the incapability of the latter to rule themselves evidently provided the justification for colonial rule. Such difference was, however, unfixed, thus Ann Laura Stoler posited, in her formative essay, to examine the ‘coloniser’ and the ‘colonised’ as “an historically shifting pair of social categories”.

In colonial societies, concepts of whiteness intersected with not least ideas of race, class, gender, age, and respectability to determine membership in the colonising group. In British India for example, racial prestige could be tarnished, when ‘low and licentious Europeans’, exposed themselves to the colonised population. Thus warranted reactive measures from colonial authorities and social movement organisations to keep them in line or out of sight. While a focus on subalterns of the colonising group is instructive in delineating the internal boundaries within said community, an investigation into the processes underlying anxieties surrounding the presence of colonial subalterns in the colonies could prove useful in explaining seemingly contradictory narratives about ‘problematic’ behaviour.

Will Jackson and Emily J. Manktelow have shown how the approach of ‘thinking with deviance’ allows historians to re-evaluate the dynamics of colonial rule. Behaviours, situations or persons labelled as ‘deviant’ reiterated colonial expectations of what was considered acceptable while seemingly undermining them. Deviance as a lens, thus, allows the historian to examine how the proscription of some behaviours and persons was designed to reinforce the boundaries of the ‘coloniser’ category while revealing the fissures within which. It furthermore illustrates the precarity of imperial rhetoric; episodes of moral panic over ‘deviant’ behaviour or persons were reflective of a sense of insecurity that prompted vigilant maintenance of ostensible racial superiority.

The transimperial approach, according to Daniel Hedinger and Nadin Heé, brings together multiple empires and focuses on “imperial competition, cooperation and connectivity” as “entangled processes”. Informed by this approach, this workshop invites scholars at all levels to consider how the interplay of concepts of deviance and whiteness reified and/or challenged the rhetoric of racial superiority in colonies across Asia, specifically East, South, and Southeast Asia, ca. 1800-1940. More broadly, the workshop aims to address the use of ‘deviance’ as a lens to understand imperial/colonial socio-political hierarchies. Topics might include:
  • Definitions and types of deviance e.g. intoxication, madness, prostitution
  • Experiences and agency of those labeled as deviant
  • Reading deviance in colonial archives
  • Functions of deviance in colonial societies
  • Inter- and/or intra-imperial circulation of knowledge of deviance
  • Effects of ‘deviance’ on relationships between the ‘coloniser’ and the ‘colonised’
Proposals

This workshop will take place on 1-2 February 2024 at Villa Hatt (ETH Zürich) in Zürich, Switzerland. 

For individual paper proposals, please submit a title, 250-word abstract, and a short CV (max. 1 page) to Denise Lim (zhiqingdenise.lim@gmw.gess.ethz.ch) by 20 June 2023. Confirmation of acceptance of papers will be sent by end July 2023.

CFP: DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES WORKSHOP; BELONGING IN SOUTH AND NORTH KOREAN POPULAR CULTURE


Belonging in South and North Korean popular culture: diverse perspectives Workshop

Universität Hamburg, Asien-Afrika-Institut, Korean studies, August 30th-31st 2023


The categories of nation and nationalism have been major terms under which the construction of belonging has been explored, especially in earlier film studies. Looking at North and South Korean popular culture, the construction of a sense of belonging is diverse. While there have already been some contributions to gender or ideology and propaganda, other representations of the sense of belonging such as to region, nature, physical or social characteristics of communities are still scarce. The cause for diversity might also be based on the different development within the two states. What are the contexts to a certain sense of belonging? What are the modes of representation?

The conference can be attended on site or online. One night accommodation with half-board will be provided by the organiser. Selected papers will be published in a collected volume after the workshop.

Deadline for abstracts (200 – 300 words): February 15th 2023

For further requests, please contact Prof. Dr. Yvonne Schulz Zinda: yvonne.schulz.zinda@uni-hamburg.de

INTERNATIONAL POSTDOCTORAL WORKSHOP ON THE HISTORY OF CHRISTIANITY IN EAST ASIA AT SEOUL NATIONAL UNIVERSITY


International postdoctoral workshop on the history

of christianity in East Asia at Seoul National University

The Ricci Institute relocated from University of San Francisco to Boston College in late 2021. We are inviting post-doctoral level scholars and junior faculty members whose research focuses on Christianity in East Asia and who are currently preparing a book manuscript for publication to apply. This workshop is part of a four-year project supported by the Henry Luce Foundation in New York City. The project is entitled, “Historical Legacies of Christianity in East Asia: Bridging a New Generation of Scholars and Scholarship” and is administered by the Ricci Institute. For more information about the various initiatives that are part of the project, please visit: this website.

The workshop has three primary components.
  • [1] First, through a series of lectures and seminars by senior scholars from Seoul National University and other universities, participants will have the opportunity to confer with specialists from around the world regarding the interpretation of complex primary source materials, including manuscripts and early printed books from different historical periods composed in a variety of East Asian and Western languages (e.g. classical Chinese, classical Japanese, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, etc...). Another primary focus of the workshop will be reflecting on research methodologies and historiographies, how they developed, and the ways in which they were expressed through different scholarly traditions. The training offered will be further enhanced by visits to local archives and museums with specialized collections pertinent to the history of Christianity in East Asia, as well as to important Christian historical sites in Seoul.
  • [2] Secondly, participants will have the opportunity to interact with a Senior Acquisitions Editor from Brill Academic Publishers in Leiden, The Netherlands, and with other scholars regarding the entire editorial and publication process of a scholarly monograph (with any major academic press).
  • [3] Thirdly, participants will be personally mentored by invited senior scholars who are well known internationally for their contributions to the study of Christianity in East Asia. These scholars will critique and discuss the participants’ draft manuscripts in view of their preparation for publication. This will take place in an open forum together with fellow participants. Participants will be required to submit their manuscripts well ahead of time, so that the scholars will have sufficient time to read them carefully.

    (AKS-2020-OLU-20200039)

    9-10 February 2021 (Zoom event)


    Postgraduate eWorkshop

    The eWorkshop is designed to provide a forum for those enrolled in a research degree course such as PhD, MPhil or MRes in Korean Studies to present their research, and receive feedback and mentoring from established international scholars in the field of Korean Studies. Postgraduate students are invited to submit proposals for presentations that draw on their dissertation. PhD students should have passed their confirmation of candidature at the time of applying. COVID-19 has resulted in traditional face-to-face conference formats migrating online, a transition that has made online presentation skills integral to academia. As such, one aim of this year’s workshop is to provide presenters with an opportunity to develop their online presentation skills. To do so, an eWorkshop format will be utilised.


    What is an eWorkshop?

    Rather than presenting a paper live, presenters will be required to record and submit a video presentation of no more than 10 minutes one month in advance of the eWorkshop. Instructions on how to do so will be provided beforehand. The videos will then be circulated to all participants prior the Workshop. 

    The eWorkshop will be conducted on Zoom for 3 hours each day. For each video an internationally renowned Korean Studies scholar will be invited to act as discussant and provide specific feedback, after which the floor will be opened to further comments from all participants. Built into the eWorkshop will also be a publishing seminar and discipline-specific breakout groups. During the breakout groups participants will be able to have a detailed conversation with their discussant as well as other postgraduate students from the same discipline.


    Key Dates 
    • 9 November – due date for applications
    • 7 December – successful applicants notified
    • 11 January – due date for video presentations

    CFP: "HATE SPEECH IN ASIA AND EUROPE: PANDEMIC, FEAR, AND HATE", THE 3RD INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP


    The 3rd International Workshop

    Hate Speech in Asia and Europe: Pandemic, Fear, and Hate

    May 20 (THU) – 21 (FRI), 2021


    Convener:

    Center for Korean Studies, Ritsumeikan University, Kioto, Japan


    Co-organizers:

    Institute of Communication Research, Seoul National University, South Korea

    LCAO-CCJ, Université de Paris, France


    Supporter:

    Resona Foundation

    This project began in 2017 as a way to bring scholars across the continents together to discuss national, regional, and global dynamics of hate speech from diverse viewpoints that include the political, legal, historical, ideological and cultural perspectives. Through the 1st and 2nd workshop, held respectively in Kyoto and Paris, we explored the contours of hate speech in different Asian and European countries. And some of the papers from the two workshops were published via a journal special issue and an edited volume.

    (You can find more information on the edited volume from the 1st workshop at here)

    Next year, the workshop will continue and expand this conversation by considering acute tensions surrounding hate speech issues in the age of pandemic and including research on other continents, not strictly confined to Asia and Europe.

    Although the COVID-19 was of natural origin, its impact on society is more a matter of a social crisis than a natural disaster. Pandemic is shaking the society to its very foundation. This workshop pays attention to the fear, discrimination, and hatred between nations, communities, and individuals within the context of the anxiety and inequality brought by the pandemic. COVID-19 has spurred hate speeches across continents, from the conflict between the U.S. and China to discriminatory acts targeting at the ‘other(s)’. The profile of victims varies from country to country, and diverse civil societies and nations have responded to this phenomenon in different manners. While no one can predict how this pandemic is going to shape the world after all, through this workshop, we expect to explore hate speech fueled by the pandemic crisis and seek philosophical, ethical and theoretical perspectives that illuminate how to overcome the fear and the hate in this pandemic era.

    We invite you to submit paper abstracts adopting different approaches such as media studies, history, sociology, anthropology, political science, legal studies, religious studies that examine, but are not restricted to, the following questions:

    • What are the current contours of hate speech in this/the pandemic crisis?
    • How can we better prevent and address social stigma associated with the COVID-19?
    • What are the differences and similarities in the manifestations of hate speech across countries in the pandemic crisis?
    • What are the legal and discursive characteristics of individual societies in dealing with hate speech in the pandemic crisis?
    • What frailties and inequalities does the COVID-19 expose?
    • How are different media platforms exploited to express and spread hatred against various minorities in the pandemic period?
    • Why do ethnicity, sexuality and religion often act as flashpoints in the pandemic crisis?
    • Who are the scapegoats stigmatized by hate speeches linked to this health crisis?


    We are pleased to provide selected presenters with partial subsidies for accommodation and travel expenses, depending on funding availability and the participant’s needs. We intend to publish selected papers from the workshop as a journal special issue and/or an edited volume with a reputable academic press.

    This is an in-person workshop, but we are considering converting it to a virtual or hybrid event.


    Submission guidelines

    Please email your proposal with a title, an abstract of not more than 500 words in MS Word to hatespeechworkshop@gmail.com, together with your name, position, institutional affiliation and email address by October 31, 2020. (Authors will be notified of abstract acceptance by November 20, 2020). Selected authors will be requested to submit full papers by April 20, 2021.

    CFP: PROVENANCE RESEARCH ON EAST ASIAN ART #3 WORKSHOP IN BERLIN


    Workshop - Provenance Research on East Asian Art #3
    (Berlin |  Nov 8-9, 2019)

    The collecting of art and artefacts from East Asia has been in vogue in the Western world for hundreds of years with the forced opening of China, Japan and Korea from the mid-19th century onwards, creating a market boom that resulted in thousands of objects entering collections worldwide. China in particular, during the first three decades of the 20th century, became subject to the most intensive spate of collecting on the part of museum institutions and private collectors.
 

    
In the past 20 years, the movement of these objects and the circumstances of their translocation have been increasingly the focus of curators and scholars investigating purchases related to the politics and market mechanisms under the Nazi regime. Despite research and numerous projects, we still do not know enough about the destiny of significant private collections dispersed between 1933 and 1945, the acquisition policies of museums at this time and the key actors and institutions involved in the art market for East Asian art in the first half of the 20th century.
 


    The current international debates around the handling of objects that found their way into museum collections in connection with the colonial period present new challenges for collecting history and provenance research. This includes the revaluation of historical contexts, the reconstruction of looted and displaced collections in East Asia and the layout of a legal or ethical framework to address these issues.
 


    Since 2017, German scholars and museum professionals have been meeting annually in Berlin in order to discuss challenges in researching the provenance of objects originating from East Asia, present current projects and discover similarities in collecting practices and object biographies. During these meetings, a strong wish to connect with colleagues from Europe and abroad has been articulated.


    This year’s workshop is open to international colleagues. It aims to create a platform for the exchange of ongoing research in the field and connect colleagues from around the world in a sustainable network.


    
We welcome papers focusing on the following topics: 
    • The translocations of objects from East Asia abroad during the colonial era;
    • Case studies related to objects or collections that have been unlawfully confiscated during the Nazi era;
    • Actors in the field of dealing and collecting the arts from East Asia that have influenced several museum collections;
    • Methods in researching the provenance of East Asian art.

    Conference language is English.

    WORKSHOP DE VERANO SOBRE HISTORIA DE LA CIENCIA Y TECNOLOGÍA EN EL ESTE ASIÁTICO MODERNO



    La Fundación D. Kim para la Historia de la Ciencia y la Tecnología en Asia Oriental, junto con el Programa de Historia y Filosofía de la Ciencia de la Universidad Nacional de Seúl, se complace en anunciar un workshop de verano para jóvenes académicos que se realizará del 21 al 23 de junio de 2019 en la Hoam Faculty House de la Universidad Nacional de Seúl, en Seúl, Corea del Sur.

    Los objetivos principales del taller son dos: El primero es promover el intercambio y la colaboración transnacional en la historia de la ciencia y la tecnología en Asia oriental, reuniendo a 12-15 estudiantes de posgrado y doctorados recientes durante varios días de intercambio animado y agradable. El segundo es ayudar a estos jóvenes académicos a perfeccionar sus habilidades de presentación, para que puedan comunicar su investigación de manera precisa y convincente.

    Los académicos más jóvenes serán asesorados por un grupo internacional de académicos sénior que ofrecerá capacitación general en técnicas de presentación efectiva y una retroalimentación específica sobre proyectos individuales, al igual que presentarán tendencias y recursos notables en el estudio de la ciencia y la tecnología en el Este Asiático moderno.

    Todo el taller se llevará a cabo en inglés. Los organizadores del taller cubrirán los costos de transporte para los participantes y también organizarán el alojamiento y las comidas durante el taller.


    DETALLES

    Duración del taller

    Los participantes deben llegar a Seúl antes del jueves 20 de junio.
