crystallized through the presentation of sample lectures. It
reflects the vision which has directed the center's previous
endeavors , such as the publication of the Women's Studies
textbook from 8 Asian countries, and the 2002 International
workshop, “Understanding Sexualities in Asia.” This vision
was established in accordance with the local, historical and
cultural contexts of Asia.
The 2006 Summer Lecture
Session, which will take place from June 28 th to 30 th ,
will examine the topic, "The Politics of Feminist Knowledge
Production in Asian Countries." The program includes
lectures by Tani, E. Barlow, Professor in the Department of
Women Studies and History, University of Washington;
presentations by research scholars participating in the
projects in the area of Asian Women Studies; presentations
by young feminists; and on-site visits.
Lecture Description
The 2006 Summer Lecture
Session will be held over 3 days and will include 3
lectures, a guest speaker's lecture, young feminists'
