| The main objects of our
winter symposium are: 1) to examine the role of human mobility in
creating the nation-state contours of regional powers; 2) to see how
much “leverage” border-crossers and borderland peoples have enjoyed to
realize varied desires and ambitions in their interactions with their
home countries and international orders; 3) to gather scholars from
China, India, Russia, Europe, Asia, and North America, to integrate
each expertise, and to elaborate on the methodology for a common
research agenda. |
