Eighteenth Annual Meeting of the Association for Asian American Studies
"Boundaries of Asian American Studies"
The first Association for Asian American Studies (AAAS) conference to be
held outside the United States represents a valuable occasion to
reconsider margins, centers, and configurations in the field of Asian
American studies. The Association issues a special invitation to scholars,
students, and community members involved in Asian Canadian studies to
participate. Join us in 2001 to explore and challenge multiple
"boundaries," geo-political spaces, and cultural sites in the new
millennium.
The theme "Boundaries of Asian American Studies" raises general and
specific questions about ethnic, area, and transnational studies. The
conference welcomes comparative studies of Asians in the Americas - North,
Central, South, the Pacific, and the Caribbean. The theme also invites
discussion of relations across disciplines, theories, and methods toward
strengthening disciplinary and interdisciplinary studies on Asian
Americans and Asian Canadians.
The Association invites proposals from all disciplines, and especially
seeks to increase the involvement of social scientists and policy
researchers. We encourage panel proposals that address and cross national,
ethnic, disciplinary, and other borders, and "T" (teaching sessions)
devoted to issues of curriculum and pedagogy.
Send panel/paper proposals to: Secretariat, AAAS, Cornell University, 420
Rockefeller Hall, Ithaca, NY, USA 14853.
