Proposals for paper/panels may be submitted no later than May 1, 2001.

This being a conference of people in the profession of "knowing Asia,"
we
encourage papers that explicitly address methodologies used to analyze
and
present knowledge about Asia.  And also, in another sense, perspectives
on
global issues that arise from Asian materials and experience as to how
the
world is known from Asia; "knowing" can be read as either a verb or an
adjective.  This "knowing" can be contextualized in terms of research
and
scholarly work, of pedagogy and the practice of teaching, of the
application
of academic knowledge to current issues and public affairs, or how the
internet has affected the way knowledge from and about Asia circulates
and
is formulated.

Themes include:

Language and Linguistics
Literature
Government and Politics
Gender
State Religion and Ideology
Popular Religion
Business and Trade
Diplomacy and Warfare
Urban and Rural Societies
Upland and Lowland Societies
Historical Writing and Formulations of the Past
Gender
Popular Culture
