Since 1979 Cambodians in Cambodia and in Cambodian communities overseas have had to contend with multiple transitions; from war to peace, from one political-economic system to another and from virtual diplomatic isolation to regional and global re-integration. Inquiry into the outcomes and expressions of these transitions is still ongoing and uncertain. This conference aims to focus attention on new scholarly inquiry into the nature and impact of these transitions as they affect power relations, communal organization, identity formations and rural-urban as well as transnational migrations. Papers are being selected from the fields of
•History
•Political Science
•Sociology
•Human Geography
•Ethnic Studies
•Migration Studies
•Anthropology
•Religious Studies
•Visual and Performing Arts.
Conference details (i.e. attendance fees and program) will be posted shortly.
