The Fourth Asian Conference on Arts and Humanities 2013 - International conference organized by IAFOR in partnership with its global university affiliates, including Auburn University College of Arts and Sciences (USA), Birkbeck, University of London (UK), Hong Kong Institute of Education, Hong Kong (HKSAR), University of Lincoln (UK), The National Institute of Education (Singapore), The National University of Tainan (Taiwan), Waseda University (Japan), Zagreb University (Croatia)

Conference Theme: Connectedness, Identity and Alienation
CFP: Deadline December 1 2012

Dear Colleagues,

A combined total of more than 900 academics from over fifty different nations have attended the Asian Conference on Arts and Humanities since it was launched in 2010. As the conference enters its fourth year it aims to build on the strengths and successes of the previous two years by offering a true celebration of interdisciplinary study in a stimulating scholarly environment, and in the wonderfully rich physical and cultural environment of Japan. This international conference will again bring together university scholars working throughout Japan, Asia, and beyond to share ideas and forge working relationships with each other over a stimulating, challenging, and fun long weekend.

The 2013 conference theme is "Connectedness, Identity and Alienation" and the organizers hope that this will again encourage and inspire exciting new research avenues, and further encourage academic and personal encounters and exchanges across national, religious, cultural and disciplinary divides.

We look forward to seeing you (again) in Osaka in 2013!

Order of the Sacred Treasure, B.D., Ph.D., F.R.A.S.
