Subject: [CSEAS-UCLA] Call for Proposals - UCLA Indonesian Studies
Graduate Student Conference
Call for Proposals
"Community, Identity, Change"
First UCLA Indonesian Studies Graduate Student Conference
UCLA's newly established Indonesian Studies Program invites proposals
from graduate students whose research focuses upon the formation and fluidity
of community and identity in contemporary Indonesia (c. 1945-present) for a
conference to take place at UCLA April 17-18, 2009.
In what ways is "community" being created, sustained, redefined,
expanded, disrupted, or articulated among Indonesians today? How does
"identity," in all of its transfigurations, continue to shape Indonesian
experience and everyday life? This conference aims to unite scholars from
across the disciplines in a shared quest to reexamine classic concepts within
Indonesian Studies as well as to investigate emerging theories/queries/concerns
that will guide us in future activism and research.
Some ideas to consider:
* New approaches to or re-assessments of the impact of
cross-cultural encounter and trade from the colonial period to the present
* "Real" or "imagined" communities emerging within Indonesia
* Alternative meanings of and reflections upon Indonesia's
oft-quoted motto, "unity in diversity"
* Contemporary issues within Indonesia's Islamic communities
* Gender and sexuality in modern Indonesia
* The articulation of global discourses on human rights,
environmentalism, public health and feminism within modern Indonesia
* The influence of immigration, transnationality, and citizenship
upon the formation of Indonesian communities and identities
* Disaster, disease, healing and reconstruction in contemporary
Indonesian communities
* Indonesian arts and cultures
Graduate students working in the following disciplines as well as other
related fields whose research serves to enhance understanding about community
and identity in modern Indonesia are encouraged to submit proposals:
Anthropology, Archeology, Arts and Cultures, Business, Education, Economics,
Environmental Studies, Ethnomusicology, Geography, Governance, Health, History,
Linguistics, Literature, Performance Studies, Philosophy, Politics, Population,
Sociology, Women's Studies and Urban & Regional Planning.
We welcome individual paper submissions as well as proposals for panels
of no more than 3 presenters. Completed papers as well as works-in-progress
will be accepted on a competitive basis. For paper submissions, please send a
CV and a 200-300 word abstract to <[email protected]>
<mailto:[email protected]> . For panel submissions, please send a
brief description of the panel theme as well as a 200-300 word abstract for
each individual paper to <[email protected]>
<mailto:[email protected]> . Presentations should be no more than
20 minutes and will be followed by 10 minutes of discussion.
Financial aid for travel expenses up to $750 is available for
conference participants who request it.
