Between the Mountain and the Sea: Positioning Indonesia
July 9-10, 2012
Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia
Deadline for Submission of Abstracts: March 31, 2012
The Fifth International Indonesia Forum Conference sponsored by Yale University and Gadjah Mada University will be held at Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta on July 9-10, 2012. As an interdisciplinary conference bringing together scholars from Indonesia and many other nations, the conference seeks to provide a platform for scholars who keenly follow developments in Indonesia to discuss the various ways and contexts by which the state, scholars, individuals, civil society organizations, and other interest groups have re-created, redefined, or reimagined Indonesia's past, present, and future in response to, or along with, its changes: political, environmental, climatic, religious, conceptual, geo-strategic, social, pop cultural, and intellectual. Papers that deal with the various aspects of positioning Indonesia in the global or regional stage, in the increasingly fragile natural environment, as well as positioning Indonesian citizens and communities within this multicultural nation are welcome.
Persons wishing to present papers at the conference are invited to submit a one-page abstract in electronic form (PDF or MSWord), as well as a brief CV to Frank Dhont: frank.dhont@yale.edu. All papers will be presented in English. Deadline for submission of abstracts: March 31, 2012.
