New | Calendar | Recent Exhibitions | Auction Re/Siting Asian American Studies: Connecting Critical Approaches In The Field DATE: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2010 About the Conference: For the first time, this conference brings leaders in Asian American Studies in conversation with Rutgers faculty to highlight three current developments in the field: Connective and Comparative Race Histories, Visual and Performative Cultures, and Trans-regionalism. These three developments mark the cutting-edge approaches of this forty-year old field. Along with the three panels, the final roundtable invites two senior founding directors of institutes at NYU and Brown University to discuss with faculty from Rutgers-New Brunswick and Rutgers-Newark the research imperatives for Asian American Studies unique to our region. In recent years, the endeavors of the undergraduate-led Asian American Leadership Cabinet and the Asian American Cultural Center have dovetailed with the work of the Collective for Asian American Scholarship, made up of faculty and graduate students across disciplines-- American Studies, Sociology, Anthropology, English, History, Music, and Women’s and Gender Studies-- in growing a unique transnational and connective Asian American Studies at Rutgers. With this conference we forge these linkages with interventions from key senior scholars from across the United States.
