Welcome to a new semester at the Centre!
We look forward to an exciting semester with many activities and events. The fall sees the start of our collaboration with UPF Lund, The Association of Foreign Affairs. The topic for the public debate on 6 September is highly relevant and timely, East Asia after Trump. The event is moderated by Dr. Paul O'Shea from the Centre and include Misato Matsuoka, Tokai University, Ra Mason, University of East Anglia, and Elina Sinkkonen, Finnish Institute of International Affairs.
We also have a range of interesting open talks lined up, including one on Hegemony and the US-Japan Alliance, Chinese communities in Cambodia, labour NGOs in China, and China's digital working class. We organize our final Lund University 350th Anniversary Event on 19th September on the topic Why Area Studies Are Important: The Future of Asian Studies with international speakers such as Professor Hyung-Gu Lynn, Institute of Asian Research, University of British Columbia, and editor of Pacific Affairs, and Professor Philippe Peycam, director of International Institute of Asian Studies, Leiden. You can also look forward to an event on financial inclusion in Asia in October and many more events throughout the fall so please check our website.
A warm welcome back to the Centre and the Asia Library! Marina Svensson |
