Re: ICAES and East Asian migration
As some of you may already know, the International Congress of
Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences (ICAES) is held every four
years, with the next Congress now scheduled for Kunming, China in July 2008.
I have been developing a set of interlinked panels on East Asian
migration for that Congress. The general structure will be one panel
on general comparative issues regarding East Asian migration
(especially its implications for development and change) and then two
more focused panels, one dealing with the economics of migration and
the other more with social and cultural aspects.
I am particularly interested in having good representation from
Vietnam whether for cross-border ties with China or the range of
refugees, labor migrants, and spouses who now connect Vietnam with
the rest of East Asia.
So if you have an interest in Vietnam's interconnection with the rest
of East Asia through migration please let me know. Actual paper topic
is quite negotiable.
