Inaugural AAS-in-Asia Conference
ASIA IN MOTION
HERITAGE AND TRANSFORMATION

Date	:	17-19 JULY 2014
Venue	:	NUS UTown, National University of Singapore Town Plaza, CREATE TOWER Level 2, 1 CREATE WAY, Singapore 138602

The Asia Research Institute (ARI) and the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) of the National University of Singapore, in conjunction with the Association for Asian Studies (AAS), are pleased to present the inaugural AAS-in-ASIA Conference, “Asia in Motion: Heritage and Transformation,” to be held on 17-19 July 2014 in Singapore. This broad theme has attracted panel and roundtable proposals not only from humanists and social scientists but also from law, policy, civil society, journalism, and other professional fields.

This event inaugurates a series of such meetings to be held regularly at different locations in Asia. In creating a smaller version of its annual North American conference, the AAS seeks panels with a mix of scholars and reflective practitioners from Asia, the USA and other parts of the world.

The Association hopes to spark off new and fruitful areas of collaboration by bringing together Asian specialists based outside of Asia and Asian-based scholars as well as practitioners whose routine expertise is not foregrounded as “Asian”.

As a global hub linking many different parts of the world to Asia, Singapore is ideally placed to launch this enterprise. You will encounter astonishing diversity at every turn in this cosmopolitan city. We welcome you to enjoy it at all levels, from the intellectual to the technological to the culinary.
