PhD students and early career researchers </b>to submit proposals for
seminar presentations on any aspect of the international and transnational
history of East and Southeast Asia, <b>particularly papers on the
nineteenth and twentieth centuries</b>. We are interested both in
proposals exploring international and transnational connections within and
between East and Southeast Asia as well as proposals considering the interaction
of East/Southeast Asia and the wider world, including Africa, Latin America,
Central Asia, and elsewhere.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif" lang="EN-US"><span></span></span></p>

proposals for papers on a broad range of international and transnational
history topics, including not only traditional state-to-state relations, but
also the flow of people, goods and ideas between states and/or non-state
actors, the role of transnational organisations, and the importance of culture,
identity, race, and gender in international and transnational history, to name
just a few. Interdisciplinary approaches with a strong historical focus are
also welcome.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif" lang="EN-US"><span></span></span></p>

will be held <b>in person and/or online</b> during Oxford’s Trinity Term, which
is <b>between 23 April and 18 June 2022</b>. Presentations are expected to
last between 20 and 30 minutes and are followed by Q&A. </span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif" lang="EN-US"><span></span></span></p>
