Leiden Institute for Area Studies (LIAS)

Faculty of Humanities, Leiden University, Leiden, The Netherlands

Self-description:
"The Leiden Institute for Area Studies (LIAS) is responsible for 
researchers who are active in the fields of relations with East, 
South and Central and Southeast Asia and the Middle East. The 
Institute is divided into a School for Asian Studies and a School for 
Middle Eastern Studies. A multidisciplinary approach which comprises 
both the modern and the traditional periods is typical for the 
teaching and research within this Institute, whereby the knowledge of 
the source language is essential. The research of the approximately 
75 staff members (including 20 professors) brings together the study 
of such subjects as history, law, economy, literature, religion and 
philology of the areas mentioned, both in the present day and in 
ancient times."
