Each workshop may have one or two directors, and selected workshop
directors will be expected to help recruit and select 8 international
workshop participants (senior and junior scholars, graduate students,
other researchers) from across relevant disciplines in the social
sciences and related fields. Proposals are invited from faculty
interested in organizing and directing a workshop on one of the
following 6 themes:

1) Transnational Knowledge Economies

2) Translocal Trust Networks, Religion and Law

3) Urban Ecologies in Asia’s Cities

4) Security and Insecurity

5) Migration: Mobilities and Displacements

6) Old Histories, New Geographies/
