The theme “Imagining Cambodia” opens the possibility of presentations in the arts as well as the social sciences and humanities, encourages interdisciplinary/ multidisciplinary projects, and promotes creative work on both future possibilities and re-imagined versions of the past. What is beyond a post-conflict society? How are new histories being constructed? What visions of the future are being expressed through painting, drama, and literature as well as economic policy and new patterns of political participation? Papers that focus on Cambodian Diaspora communities are welcome. For more information, see Cambodia Conference 2012 Call for Papers.
