Centre for East Asian Studies : University of Bristol
Citation: The biggest challenge we face today is East Asia: its economies and its politics, its security fractures and its environmental issues, and its globalising cultures. The challenge for Europe, for Britain, and for the University of Bristol, is to understand East Asia, engage with it, and prepare for a century in which Asia will be a leading player. The Centre for East Asian Studies will equip Bristol to play a prominent role in that project. It will draw together existing scholars and bring in new specialists to provide a core of interdisciplinary expertise that will direct and lead world-class research into contemporary East Asia and its historical foundations. Central to this Bristol initiative will be a distinctive research programme that builds on our proven track record in contemporary policy engagement and our existing research expertise and institutional links, taking as its key themes the EU-Asia relationship, and historical and contemporary perspectives on globalisation.
http://www.bris.ac.uk/ceas/ more Language: eng English Women and Gender in Chinese Studies Network Citation: [Established in August 2001, we] were motivated into action by the relative invisibility of women's and gender studies scholarship at the European Association of Chinese Studies (EACS) conference in Torino (2000) where only a minority of European scholars and students in the field were present. We feel that the time has come for a stronger, concentrated presence. [...] Our concern is to link European scholarship in Chinese women's/gender studies, in all its linguistic diversity. While a main aim is to bring together European scholars, so that we know who is working where, in which disciplines and on which issues, the Network is open to our colleagues in Asia and other parts of the world.
