>
> Call for Papers
>
> Economic and political developments supporting more democratic
> structures in a globalizing international world provide opportunities
> but also pose challenges for Indonesia and the increasingly globalized
> Indonesian citizens of the 21st century. In order to face these
> challenges and seize these opportunities education is essential.
> Issues of affordable access to and quality of Indonesian education are
> an essential component of the theme of this year's conference. In a
> broader sense we also welcome scholars to consider values taught
> external to the formal educational establishment, including those
> within families, communities, places of worship and businesses as
> these represent a foundational part of the individual educational
> experience of Indonesians today. On both the structural and national
> levels there are also important issues of development and Indonesian
> nationalism that need to be addressed to meet the challenges of
> tomorrow. This is especially true in a country of great diversity
> containing such a broad range of distinct individuals and groups who
> comprise this Indonesian state where education colors and shapes the
> Indonesian national character and social fabric, teaching what it
> means to be Indonesian while appreciating the unique diversity that
> strengthens the Indonesian nation-state as an emerging leader in the
> international community.
>
> The 4th International Indonesia Forum sponsored by Yale University and
> UNY, will focus on education in Indonesia. As with past Fora, the
> topic will be approached by scholars of various disciplines from
> diverse angles. Papers are welcome exploring all aspects of the unique
> mix that shapes Indonesia today as education serves as a tool that can
> be applied to make people into better citizens, parents, businessmen,
> artists, and politicians in the Indonesian nation-state framework.
>
> Therefore we call upon the expertise of scholars from Indonesia and
> beyond to pool their expertise to address this issue. The 4th
> International Indonesia Forum Conference will be held at Yogyakarta
> State University in Yogyakarta on June 28-29, 2011.
> Persons wishing to present papers at the conference are invited to
> submit a one-page abstract in electronic form (PDF or MSWord) as well
> as brief CV to Frank Dhont at frank.dhont@yale.edu by March 31, 2011.
