CfP: Asian Conference on the Social Sciences

The International Academic Forum in conjunction with its global partners is proud to announce the inaugural Asian Conference on the Social Sciences, to be held from June 18-21, 2010 at the Ramada Osaka Hotel, Osaka, Japan. Papers are invited on the theme East Meets West in Pursuit of a Sustainable World. The aim of ACSS is to encourage academics and scholars to meet and exchange ideas and views in a forum encouraging respectful dialogue. This international conference will bring together a number of university scholars working throughout Japan, Asia, and beyond to share ideas. ACSS 2010 will afford the opportunity for renewing old acquaintances, making new contacts, and networking across higher education. It is hoped that academics working in Japan and Asia will be encouraged to forge working relationships with each other, as well as with colleagues from Europe and the U.S., facilitating partnerships across borders. Proposals should be received by January 1, 2010. For more information please see the conference website.
