IPRH Reading Group: Centers and Margins in East Asian History and Culture
We seek to understand East Asian cultures as they formed over time through interaction between various centers and margins. We want to unpack the changing meanings of the terms "center" and "margin" in East Asia over space and time, as the meanings point to different things if you speak of them in terms of the myriad geographic, cultural or political subject positions within East Asia. The group reads both important recent work, and group members' own projects.
Contact: Jing Jing Chang (jjchang1@illinois.edu) and Yoonjeong Shim (yshim@illinois.edu)
For our first meeting, we will meet at Intermezzo, located in the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts on Friday, September 4th between 4:30 and 6:30pm.
We will discuss, "Venturing into 'Barbarous' Regions: Transborder Trade among Migrant Yunnanese between Thailand and Burma, 1960s-1980s" (Journal of Asian Studies, Vol. 68, no. 2, May 2009). This article is accessible through the U of I Library Gateway's Online Research Resources page,

Freeman Indonesia Nonprofit Internship Program
The Institute of International Education is pleased to announce the inauguration of an exciting new program. The Freeman Indonesia Nonprofit Internship Program (FINIP), funded by the Freeman Foundation, aims to develop student leaders and strengthen the nonprofit sector in Indonesia. IIE will select and pair 10 Indonesian students pursuing U.S. degrees with 10 U.S. undergraduates and arrange internships for them to work together in an Indonesian nonprofit organization.
The 9-week experience, from June 15 to August 17, 2010, arranged by IIE's partner organization, the Indonesian International Education Foundation (IIEF), will take place in three cities: Jakarta, Bandung and Yogyakarta. All program-related costs will be covered.
Upon returning to the U.S., students will be expected to share their experiences with peers on their home campuses and to explore ways to incorporate what they learned over the summer into their academic and professional careers.
Interested American and Indonesian sophomores and juniors enrolled in U.S. institutions are encouraged to apply, using the online application at http://www.iie.org/programs/finip . The deadline for submission of completed applications is February 15, 2010.
Contact finip@iie.org or (212) 984-5542 with any questions.
More information and a program flyer can be found at the program website at http://www.iie.org/programs/finip |
