CEU's summer school invites applications from graduate students, junior faculty, researchers and practitioners to participate in the Summer Course “Comparative Regionalisms: Changing Forms of Governance in Asia, Africa and the Americas and the Effects on the World Order” at Central European University (CEU) in Budapest, Hungary, July 2-12, 2012. The course fosters new approaches to the study of regionalisms in Asia, Africa and the Americas. Building on, but seeking to go beyond the European experience the course examines the rise of regions after World War II and the resurgence of the idea in and from the 1980s. It considers the different interpretations, values and expectations assigned to ‘region’, from regional free trade agreements to security communities to supra-national integrative projects. The course will examine how such regions vary across time and geography, assuming different characteristics, and will also consider to what extent regions are a result of and/or a response to globalization and the extent to which they constitute and shape global order. Financial aid is available. The application deadline is February 15, 2012. Please see the course website for more information.
