This is John Grisafi, a PhD candidate in Religious Studies at Yale University, seeking an appropriate session in which I can present on a chapter of my dissertation. The chapter covers how the pressures of imperialism shaped the neologism of religion and the concept of religion in relation to the state in Korea in the period from 1876 through 1904, with emphasis on intellectual and media discourse, diplomatic treaties, and laws and regulations.

Hi everyone,

My research interest lies in exploring the patterns of classical Chinese grammar, as well as how they contribute to meaning construction. I am currently conducting a textual analysis of 道德經 and trying to theorize how meaning emerges from the sentence structure and how the meaning of individual words might change when they are situated in different parts of the structure.

I am hoping to join a panel of participants who share a similar interest and are conducting textual analysis with an emphasis on sentence structure or textual patterns. If you are seeking a panelist, please contact me at RCash2@uw.edu

Thanks so much!

Hi all,

My name is Taoyu Yang, and I'm currently a postdoctoral teaching fellow at NYU Shanghai. I'm seeking to join a panel related to modern China/East Asia, the history of colonialism/imperialism, (new) diplomatic history, and urban history from a global comparative perspective. My current research focuses on the multi-imperial dynamics of Chinese treaty port cities with a particular emphasis on Shanghai and Tianjin. In addition to the topics mentioned above, I'm also open to joining a non-China focused panel whose main theme broadly resonates with my research interests. 

If there is any penal organizer who is looking for another panelist, please contact me at ty838@nyu.edu. Thank you in advance for your time/attention.

Hi everyone,

This is PHAM Minh Khang, a graduate student from GSAPS, Waseda University. 

My research focuses on climate security in Asia, examining how climate change is being integrated into national and regional security strategies. Specifically, I am interested in the concepts of securitizing climate change and/or climatization of security, particularly in the context of Japan. I am analyzing Japan's national security strategies, including the Ministry of Defense's policies, to understand how climate considerations are incorporated into broader security measures.

I am looking to join a panel of participants who are also studying climate security, the securitization of environmental issues, or the adaptation of traditional security policies to contemporary climate challenges. If you are seeking a panelist, please contact me at [khang.pham@akane.waseda.jp].

Thank you so much!
