Culture and the Configuring of Security: using Asian perspectives to inform theoretical direction.

Conference invitation and call for papers.

Researchers (including doctoral students) and other specialists with particular interest and insights into Asian security aspects are invited to participate in the second annual Nordic NIAS Council (NNC) conference on 6-9 November 2007 in Höör, Sweden. 

The mission of the conference is to engage contemporary theory from several fields in an investigation of empirical data from Asia and, conversely, bring insights from the Asian contexts to bear upon theories of security.

Call for papers

The conference features four keynote presentations focusing on macro- and micro-level aspects of security. The organisers welcome papers from senior researchers as well as doctoral students and others with an interest in the conference topic. The deadline for papers is 2 July 2007.

A PhD workshop on Asian security issues will be held in conjunction with the conference.
