>
> The second IIAS <http://www.iias.nl/> Summer Programme in Asian Studies
> will partner with the Leiden Global Interactions Research Group (LGIG)
> <http://research.leiden.edu/research-profiles/global/> at Leiden
> University <http://www.leiden.edu/> to critically explore Asian
> migrations as a globalizing force. The flows of people, goods, capital and
> ideas within and from the Asian continents have been transforming the
> global landscape for centuries. Arguably, this influence has become more
> recognizable and acute in the present day.
>
> The study of Asian mobilities can provide important insights into the
> conditions, processes and effects of globalization and historical global
> forms. In order to gain a nuanced understanding of Asia's role in the
> transformation of the global, the workshop and conference will focus on
> exploring the social, historical, political and economic conditions that
> give rise to particular forms of Asian migration and the diverse impacts
> they have in various local and global arenas. This master class seeks to
> cultivate Asian perspectives on historical and contemporary forms of
> migration and their impact on shaping global-local landscapes,
> practices, relationships and structures.
>
> The programme invites applications from PhD candidates and advanced
> research master's students whose work deals with some aspect of Asian
> migration. Students from Asia and non-European/Atlantic institutions are
> especially encouraged to apply.
>
> The programme will be run by three leading scholars in the fields of
> global migration history, the history of globalization, and modern Asian
> history: Prof. Leo Lucassen
> <http://hum.leiden.edu/history/staff/lucassen.html> (Leiden University
> <http://www.leiden.edu/> ),
> Prof. Adam McKeown
> <http://www.columbia.edu/cu/history/fac-bios/McKeown/faculty.html>
> (Columbia University <http://www.columbia.edu/> ) and
> Prof. Radhika Singha <http://www.gmw.ethz.ch/people/singha/SinghaCV.pdf>
> (Jawaharlal
> Nehru University <http://www.jnu.ac.in/> ), respectively.
>
>
> These scholars will combine their expertise to provide participants with
> an intensive and interactive experience. The master class will focus on
> student works. Students will, therefore, be expected to provide a working
> research paper and will have the opportunity to present their work and get
> productive critical feedback from the conveners and their student peers.
>
> The programme will close with a two-day conference on the same theme of
> Asian Migrations, featuring international scholars. Summer Programme
> participants will be given opportunities to meet and interact with the
> conference panelists and a select number of students may be invited to
> present their research in one of the conference sessions. All students
> will be invited to attend the conference and participate in the
> discussions.
