Advanced Study of Khmer (ASK)  Summer Language Program
Royal University of Phnom Penh at IFL

Application Deadline: February 1, 2007 

Duration of Program: June 18 - July 27, 2007
The Advanced Study of Khmer (ASK) Program is an intensive 
six-week advanced Khmer language-training program held in 
Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It aims to fill in a void in the 
academic community by providing 3rd year level students 
a "one-of-a-kind" opportunity to acquire the linguistic 
foundation necessary to engage in academic research, 
professional discourse, and cultural interaction with all 
segments of Cambodian society.

This immersion program focuses on advanced-level language 
acquisition and consists of a structured academic program of 
four hours of task-based language instruction every morning 
and to three hours of pre-arranged field trip site visits 
and related task-based learning activities in the afternoons 
and weekends as a group or as individual work. This ASK 
course is equivalent to two semesters of study. Instruction 
is given in small-individualized groups taught by in-country 
Khmer linguists in Phnom Penh. They have extensive 
experience in teaching Khmer as a foreign language.

The six-week program will be capped by a written and oral 
presentation of each participant's mini research project. 
Participants are encouraged to select their own topic at the 
beginning of the program. This experience not only adds 
immeasurably to their language competence, it develops 
greater awareness and sensitivity about another culture. In 
language study, immersion is fluency's best guarantee. The 
language immersion provided by this program is only possible 
in an in-country setting.

This program is funded by the U.S. Department of Education, 
Fulbright-Hays, and Group Projects. (10 Fellowships offer 
for qualified applicants - contingent on funding).

Living Capital: Sustaining Diversity in Southeast Asian 
Cities 

A Centre for Khmer Studies Initiating Urban Studies in 
Cambodia and Capacity Building in Higher Education 
Conference, sponsored by the Rockefeller Foundation and the 
Institute for Cultural Enterprise, New School University  

Phnom Penh, 10-11 January 2007

How can we identify, isolate and evaluate diversity in city 
life?  What forms of human, cultural and social capital 
contribute to the distinct identities of Southeast Asia’s 
cities, and what strategies are available for sustaining 
such diversity? What place is there for local livelihoods in 
the changing life of Southeast Asian cities? How can cities 
modernize without losing the aesthetic and creative value 
added by diversity? How can we harness or deploy the 
diversities of cities to stimulate economic growth, cultural 
enterprise and livelihood opportunities?

Internal migrations are changing the profile of urban 
populations across Asia. Globalization and commercialisation 
can be potent agents for change, but can also homogenize and 
disguise the local specificities of cities. Economic growth 
is essential to the vitality of cities, but without coeval 
investment in educational facilities, is unlikely to 
generate the diverse skills-base needed to give urban 
societies viable futures.   Accelerated transnational flows 
of human resources and investor capital are sponsoring the 
transformation of some Asian cities in the images of key 
counterparts. In parts of Asia, the colourful economy of 
micro-vendors adds a diversity of consumer choice to city 
streets.  The mixture of old and new buildings, as colonial 
pasts, consumer malls and the monumental architecture of 
Independence mingle in city spaces, can also enhance city 
vistas. 

Creativity is a common twin of diversity: efforts to manage 
and contain artistic and cultural expressions in designated 
cultural zones can risk erasing the very randomness that 
stimulates creativity. Unplanned real estate development can 
erase past diversity of building uses, while beautification 
schemes do not always succeed in creating the atmosphere and 
magnetism associated with longstanding leisure spaces. The 
zoning of business and leisure districts can push 
residential areas to city peripheries, thus diluting the 
potent mix of human diversity central to the dynamism and 
energy long associated with the pull of cities.  

In addressing such issues, this conference aims to stimulate 
debate on the strategies for sustaining human and cultural 
capital in the city. We particularly encourage new 
reflections on ways to mobilize and deploy the potential 
creativities inherent in the multiple intersections of city 
spaces and urban practices.  All papers that engage with 
these topics with specific regard to contemporary Southeast 
Asia will be considered. We welcome contributions from a 
range of disciplines and interests, including sociologists, 
anthropologists, architects, urban geographers, urban 
planners, heritage experts, social economists, artists and 
cultural historians.   

Abstracts of no more than 300 words, should be sent to 
iucs at khmerstudies.org by 15 November.

Penang, Malaysia, January 2008

The Second International Conference in the History of 
Medicine in Southeast Asia with the theme Treating Diseases 
and Epidemics in Southeast Asia over the Centuries intends 
to explore how the inhabitants of Southeast Asia faced the 
ravages of innumerable diseases and epidemics over the ages. 
Adopting a liberal time frame (prehistoric to modern times), 
participants are encouraged to trace the development of 
medical and religious responses to diseases and the 
devastation of epidemics. Further lines of thought are 
offered for deliberation, viz. 'How did the peoples fight 
off diseases that might spell their extinction?', 'What did 
communities do to prevent the spread of certain 
illnesses?', 'Were European colonial administrations more 
successful in disease containment than indigenous 
authorities?' These are just some of the questions that 
deserve attention.

Deadline for Abstracts: 1 May 2007
Deadline for Working Papers: 15 November 2007 

Individual Participants:  Individuals are invited to present 
a 20-minute working paper relevant to any aspect of the 
conference's theme. They are requested to submit an abstract 
(150-200 words) to the Secretariat.

Specialized Panels: Scholars who wish to organize a panel (4-
5 presenters; 1-hour per panel) based on a particular topic 
relevant to the conference's overall theme are to submit to 
the Secretariat the following materials:

CALL FOR PAPERS FOR PANELS
CULTURAL POLITICS IN THE ASEAN REGION

7th EuroSEAS CONFERENCE  
University of Naples, Italy, 12-15 September 2007

Convenor: Felicia Hughes-Freeland (Dept of Sociology and 
Anthropology, University of Wales Swansea, United Kingdom) 
and Nora Taylor (Smithsonian Institute, Washington DC, USA)

This panel invites papers that present original case 
materials from particular ASEAN states to explain and 
analyse how globally originated policies on cultural 
diversity and cultural management affect national and local 
practices. In particular we are interested in UNESCO’s 
policies associated with world heritage sites and intangible 
heritage, and the World Intellectual Property Organization 
(WIPO) which aims to protect Traditional Knowledge, 
Traditional Cultural Expression, and Genetic Resources. We 
particularly welcome papers that address different aspects 
of cultural production, including the plastic and performing 
arts, ‘folk’ performance, musical composition, and film, 
but papers about intellectual property and genetic resources 
which consider the uses of plants and medical traditions 
would also be welcome. 

The object of the panel is to consider the issues from the 
perspective of particular situated practices and cases, and 
not just from the macro, top-down perspective.

Questions to be addressed are as follows:

1. How do cultural property, intellectual, and artistic 
creations contribute to cultural identity?

2. What aspects of social practice and creation should count 
as intellectual property?

3. What problem does the concept of individual authorship 
present for Asian societies and/or individual artists?

4. What problem does the concept of legal ownership present 
for Asian societies?

5. Is intellectual property a Western concept? If so, how 
might it be amended to fit cultural patterns in ASEAN, and 
what might these patterns be?

6. How are specific governments in ASEAN states using these 
kinds of policy to strengthen their control of national 
identity?

7. What kind of contestation arises when the state attempts 
to implement such policies? This refers to issues of 
indigeneity, ethnicity, and minority statuses.

8. Are there any discernible patterns emerging within ASEAN 
that might develop into future lines of fracture?
 
We intend to produce an edited book from our discussions 
that will contribute to cross-cultural and cross-
disciplinary debates about cultural property, and provide 
case materials that will be helpful for furthering the 
debate, in both theoretical and practical terms. 

Please send abstracts of 200-300 words to both F.Hughes-
Freeland at swansea.ac.uk and nthanoi04 at yahoo.com by 1 March 
2007 at the very latest.

CALL FOR PAPERS
PANEL: Why cultivate? Understandings of past and present 
adoption, abandonment and commitment to agriculture in South 
East Asia

7th EUROSEAS Conference
University of Naples, 12-15 September 2007

CONVENORS: Dr. Monica Janowski (Natural Resources Institute, 
University of Greenwich, UK) and Prof. Graeme Barker 
(McDonald Institute, University of Cambridge, UK)

There has been debate about the origins of agriculture in 
Southeast Asia in recent years, relating to the history of 
rice, the role of root and tree crops and of minor grains, 
and the management/'cultivation' of 'wild' resources such as 
the sago palm. 

In this panel we want to focus on reasons for cultivating 
(or not cultivating) different crops, focusing on such 
factors as their role as items of trade, their role in 
structuring local social and political relations and/or 
their cultural/cosmological significance. 

We welcome papers which draw on data from current and recent 
studies within all relevant disciplines including 
anthropology, economics, archaeology, history, politics, 
sociology and botany. Our intended focus is on evidence and 
reasons for present-day and recent dynamics of change as 
well as historical change.

We plan to produce an edited book deriving from the panel.

Please submit abstracts as soon as possible, and by 1 March 
at the latest, sending them to both Monica Janowski 
(m.r.janowski at gre.ac.uk) and Graeme Barker 
(graeme.barker at mcdonald.cam.ac.uk).

SESSION TITLE: NEW INTERACTIONS, EXCHANGES AND 
EXPERIMENTATION OF  GENETIC RESOURCES AMONGST SMALL SCALE 
SOCIETIES IN SOUTHEAST ASIA

EUROSEAS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
12-15 September, 2007
University of Naples, Italy

Co-organizers: NOVELLINO Dario and PLATTEN J. Simon  
*Department of Anthropology, University of Kent, UK.

In Southeast Asia, population pressure and environmental 
transformations continue to represent an important factor of 
change for small-scale societies. By and large, semi-nomadic 
groups are diversifying their livelihood options with an 
emphasis towards more stable forms of agriculture and 
various strategies for livestock rearing. On other 
occasions, due to progressive desertification and the 
recurrence of environmental disasters, communities of 
farmers have increased their use of non-domestic resources, 
often engaging in food procurement activities (e.g. honey 
gathering) that are not customary to their groups. As niches 
of specializations become more permeable to diversification, 
social relations, traditional institutions, mobility 
patterns and ethnobiological relations are also subject to 
re-organization. On the one hand, modernization followed by 
globalization, has altered traditional endogenous movements, 
exchanges and transmission of plant and animal resources. On 
the other, the introduction and exchanges of imported 
genetic resources has also created new conditions for local 
populations to open to the global flow and negotiate freely 
with outside forces. Often, the knowledge of introduced 
breeds and landraces has ingeniously been transformed by 
local communities, or added as an overlay to pre-existing 
ways of managing and interacting with the environment. In 
some cases, this has been orchestrated by cultivators 
themselves and has resulted in a strengthened expression of 
local identity and community cohesion within the market 
economy. 

However, where socio-political circumstances were 
unfavorable, the introduction of commercial breeds of 
animals (e.g. imported pigs and cows) and plants (e.g. 
rubber, oil palm) have created a distinctive cultural space 
controlled by lobbies and elites. As a result, imported 
breeds, bearing no relationship to the local ecology, have 
contributed to plundering peoples¹ territories, undermining 
the corporate basis of community life. Overall, 
experimentation of plant and animal related knowledge has co-
evolved within the context of complementary modes of food 
procurement. More importantly, through the movement of 
people, plants and animals, cosmological views, socio-
economic and political organizations, ecological knowledge, 
representations of land and identity, forms of ownership and 
land management systems have been extended well beyond the 
medium of their local environment and engage with ever 
widening circles of knowledge that are, eventually, global. 
Generally speaking, the introduction of new species and 
breeds respond to both global and locally situated dynamics, 
and its localization via peoples¹ exchanges makes it the 
subject of constant re-working. Today, many indigenous 
plants and animal breeds are at risk due to national 
agricultural policies. So called improved breeds bring with 
them ideas and strategies for the accumulation of wealth and 
prestige, hence fostering patterns of inequality. On a 
parallel level, international treaties such as the UN 
Convention on Biological Diversity push for the conservation 
of genetic resources in ³the surroundings where they have 
developed their distinct properties (article 8). Overlapping 
agenda, and new political and economic developments 
occurring across the region provides a rich context in which 
to examine emerging patterns of peoples/plants and animal 
interactions. We seek to explore the many facets of this 
process, by bringing together a collection of case studies 
focusing on the exchange, experimentation and transmission 
of plant/animal resources and knowledge by indigenous 
societies and rural communities in contemporary Southeast 
Asia.

Timeline:  Interested authors should send a title and 
abstract for consideration to the panel¹s co-organizers no 
later than December 1, 2006.  Deadline for completed paper: 
April 1, 2007.

 Contacts: If interested, please contact Dr. Dario Novellino
