The Center for Asian Studies of the University of Georgia will host early-career scholars (including advanced graduate students) to participate in an in-person one-day interdisciplinary workshop on the theme of “Mobilities, Itineraries, Circulations: Rethinking Asian Connections.” In recent years, there has been a wealth of scholarship from and about Asia on the movement of people, ideas, commodities, and objects through time and space; the politics, technologies, and infrastructures that allow or restrict these movements; and their representation in art, literature and film.
