Faculty Roundtable: “Global, Area Studies and Comparative Studies and Transregional China”
UCSB Dean of Social Sciences Prof. Charles Hale will lead a discussion between the guest researchers, and UCSB specialists in Latin American Studies, Middle Eastern Studies, African Studies and Global Studies, to articulate new methods and agendas for area/global studies and for engaged research in all disciplines, grappling with the dilemmas of south-south relations and China’s “stepping out” into the world.
This series of events and conferences has been organized by Prof. Paul Amar (Global Studies Department, UCSB), and by Prof. Lisa Rofel (Center for Emerging Worlds, UCSC), with generous support from the Ford Foundation.
