Siem Reap Symposium 2012

The World History Association, in conjunction with Pannasastra University of Cambodia, held a symposium on the world-historical significance of Southeast Asia in January of 2012. The symposium sought to generate dialog among scholars within and outside of the region regarding its place in world history, stimulate discussion of world history methodology as well as pedagogy while identifying those world history processes that have application to the regionâ€™s past, present and future.

The symposium was held minutes from the Archeological Conservation Area that includes Angkor Wat and other spectacular ruins. Pre-symposium activities were structured so as to permit tours of these and other local sites which connect them to the wider region and the world.
