#2 JASAS 1st Annual Conference "Navigating Afro-Asian World"
This conference attempts to enlarge and deepen the scope of the study of Africa-Asia relations since ancient times till the present day by addressing facets of those geographic, socio-economic, politic-diplomatic, gender and cultural interactions over time that somehow are still neglected in modern and contemporary scholarship. We aim to offer historically contextualized insights about the various ways in which the African and Asian regions and studies engage with each other and explore those engagements from a variety of theoretical standpoints and frameworks. The conference draws on the expertise of Asianists and Africanists in direct dialogue, exploring histories, dynamics, and outflows within the above framework interaction between the two regions and studies.
