This roundtable seeks to exchange ideas about the revival and reinvention of Asian Studies (Chinese studies, Japanese studies, Korean studies as well as regional and global Asian studies) as these programs are being developed at universities and research institutes across Asia. In the case of Chinese studies, this would include both 国学 and 中国学, for example. The roundtable aims to engage in a serious discussion of various Asian studies initiatives in different Asian countries in terms of their intellectual rationale and potential – as well as the political and financial considerations and controversies that surround them.
