Title: Contextualizing Pakistan: From Within and Without
Date: April 4-5, 2014
A joint North Carolina Central University-North Carolina State University conference, co-sponsored by AIPS, was organized to highlight the continued importance of key issues in the research of social sciences and humanities in Pakistan. This two-day conference is to crystallize new directions in the study of the country. It will examine how interconnections between local, regional, national and global forms of identity—both within and outside of South Asia—impact what it means to be “Pakistani.” The conference will also explore questions concerning how these interconnections can shape the humanistic and social scientific study of Pakistan in the 21st century.
