In recent years, the theme “transnational China in a global perspective” has gained significant attention. Intellectuals from the globe contribute a lot of academic insights to construct a more diverse, dynamic and heterogeneous China. This is the first series of conferences bringing students and early career scholars who are researching transnational history and culture of China together. Also, it aims to provide an inclusive communication environment for early career scholars, or students who have potential in humanities disciplines, to share their research experiences in a university setting.

 

Through keynote lectures, panel discussions and paper presentations, the conference will foster intellectual engagement and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in transnational history and culture of China. By bringing together experts and emerging scholars, this event will facilitate meaningful discussions and promote networking opportunities for future research collaborations.

 

The primary objectives of the Transnational China in Retrospect are as follows:
1. To promote interdisciplinary research on transnational China.
2. To encourage dialogue between scholars from diverse backgrounds and foster a deeper understanding of its global significance.
3. To foster new academic insights about transnational China in academia.
4. To enhance the Faculty of Arts as the research hub of transnational history and culture of China.
