ИСТИНА

Does Area Studies still matter? How do we define Area Studies in the context of our research practice? What ethical challenges or problems does the Area Studies paradigm present to our fields? What potentialities for creativity or innovation might it hold? How can Area Studies researchers address the tension of the local and the global in their work? Can Area Studies survive in a world of increasingly complicated and inequitable border regimes? Our Symposium is a chance for PG students (Masters and PhD candidates) and Early Career Researchers to offer their perspectives on these questions, and to sketch their own ideas about Area Studies and its potential futures.
