[TimorLesteStudies] 3rd Gendering Asia Conference: Helsinki 2009

[Bu Wilson]

CALL FOR PAPERS FOR CONFERENCE

The conference seeks to address issues in contemporary Asia arising from the
increase in gendered mobility in border crossings in such locations as
national/transnational, public/private, and the categories of ethnicity,
class and sexuality. More specifically, some of the manifestations of this
mobility include the trans-nationalization of care, nursing and household
work, women's growing participation in the military, various movements
conducted by ethnic minorities and former colonial subjects, and the
emergence of trans-sexual bodies and identities.
