New Area Studies Research Centre, UEA

A one-day international symposium at the New Area Studies Research Centre at UEA, UK about the future of the field.

P﻿lease join us for a one-day, international symposium hosted by the New Area Studies Research Centre at the University of East Anglia, UK. New Area Studies: Under Construction will bring a range of global perspectives to bear on the future of the field. From the turn of the century onwards, Area Studies globally has been undergoing significant rejuvenation. This one-day conference will bring together international leaders of the discipline to spark an important discussion about New Area Studies, how we understand and conceptualise the field in theory and action, and how we imagine it will evolve in coming decades. Together, we will challenge Cold War interpretations of traditional Area Studies and acknowledge how the discipline has recently evolved, engaged in self-reflection, and offered insights into innovative practice. New Area Studies is a discipline currently under construction, and this significant conversation will lay the foundations for future developments. This gathering will also serve as the official launch event for the New Area Studies Research Centre.The symposium will be held in person in the Council Chamber, Arts and Humanities Building, UEA and also streamed online. Please note: if you plan to attend in person, please email Tracey Gaskin (t.gaskin@uea.ac.uk) for catering purposes, including any allergies or special dietary requirements.
