Self-description:
"Asian Studies Association of Australia (ASAA),
17th Biennial Conference: Is this the Asian
Country? 1-3 July 2008, Sebel Albert Park Hotel,
Melbourne. The biennial Asian Studies Association
of Australia [coombs.anu.edu.au/ASAA/] conference
is the largest gathering of expertise in Asia in
the southern hemisphere. The theme for 2008
invites you to assess how the regions and issues
on which you are interested are faring. The ASAA
conference is multi-disciplinary and covers
Central, South, South-East and North East Asia
and the relationship of all of these with the
rest of the world. The 17th biennial conference
on 1-3 July 2008 will bring together specialists
to assess trends in Asian law, medicine and
health, science, ethics/human rights, politics,
regional security, economics, culture, religion,
environment, media, the performing arts and many
other fields. Given the theme, we encourage
cross-country and inter-regional analysis. To
assess how Asia is doing, we need to think
broadly about Asia and compare trends in India
and China, the new giants of Asia, with the older
industrial power Japan and newly emerging
economies of Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia.
We also need to link up these trends with events
outside Asia."
