APFRN Conference - Call for papers

Dear list members,

Asia Pacific Futures Research Network (APFRN) is calling for papers for its 2008 conference to be held in Adelaide, December 2nd - 6th.

Australian scholars of Buddhism are invited to present papers relevant to Buddhism's future in Asia as part of a conference on "Globalising Religions & Culture in the Asia Pacific - Fundamentalisms, Proselytising and Consequences."

This gathering is the Signature Event for 2008 sponsored by the APFRN and has been entrusted to a small consortium involving the three universities in Adelaide, viz. Flinders, University of South Australia and Adelaide University.

Along with your abstract please provide a c. vitae. Paper(s) accepted for this conference will be part of the panel: "Whither Buddhism?"

For further details, contact Professor Brian Victoria, panel organizer, at: brian.victoria@antioch.edu.

Kind regards
AABS Executive
