Research Abstract |
How do we understand peoples in Asia and Africa - their lives, their societies, their social, economic, and political organizations, and their states and economies? What do we mean by "peoples" and "regions", and why do we think that it makes sense to talk about regions, peoples, and their societies, cultures, politics and economics? These are the questions we intend to address in our five-year project, "The making of Regions : Formations, Transformations and New Formations in Asia and Africa." We also emphasize activities supporting research, including publication, collection of research materials such as books, documents, maps and satellite images, and international networking of Area Studies scholars. Noteworthy achievements are 1) publication of 174 academic papers and 38 books, 2) collection and on-line registration of about 80,000 books, including Asian and African vernacular languages' books, 1,122 maps, 62 satellite imagery scenes, and 3) organization of international symposiums including "Area Studies : Past Experiences and Future Visions" in 2000 and "Regions in Globalization" in 2002.
