UPCOMING CONFERENCES
‘‘The S’aoch: an Ethnic Minority in Kampot Province’’ by Jean Michel-Filippi
Dates : 7 October 2016
Language : Khmer and English
Venue: Dancing Hall, Royal University of Fine, Phnom Penh
Organizer : YOSOTHOR and RUFA
Presentation : Not far from the crossroads of Kampot and Kampong Som, a tiny ethnic minority, still lives in the village of Samrong Leu. The term “S’aoch” is used by the outsiders, researchers included, to designate them. Theyaccept reluctantly this naming, “an itchy skin disease” in Khmer, and prefer designating themselves as “cu’ung” or as “Khmer deum” (Khmer of the origin).The aim of our presentation consists in describing in the most accurate way the prehistory, the past and the current situation this quickly vanishing minority. We intend to contribute to a better knowledge of this minority through quoting and analyzing several testimonies selected in various periods such as Zhou Daguan’s descriptions of the Chong (13th century) or Adhémar Leclère (19th century).Through this presentation, we will attempt to analyze in a deeper way the processes and the reasons that lead to the disappearance of an ethnic minority.

CSEAS Fridays at Noon Lecture Series
From subjects to relations: Bioethics and postcolonial politics in an HIV prevention trial in Cambodia by Jenna Grant
Date : Friday, October 14, 2016, 12:00-1:00 PM
Language : English
Venue : School of Social Work Building, 1080 South University Ave, University of Michigan, United States
Abstract : Over the past decade and a half, an increasing number of clinical trials have been conducted in Cambodia, making the country a source of data about HIV, malaria, and other conditions. Has Cambodia also shaped the practice of clinical trials? If so, how, and to what effect? I take up this question of how contexts shape scientific practices by exploring Cambodia’s first experimental trial, the Cambodia Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis trial. The trial was designed to test the safety and efficacy of tenofovir as a prevention for HIV infection, and was cancelled in 2004. Debates about ethics of the trial invoked international bioethics guidelines, as well as historical relations of vulnerability and responsibility between foreigners and Cambodians, and between Cambodian leaders and Cambodian subjects. These debates shifted the object of concern in classical bioethics, from the experimental human subject to the relation between subjects and researchers. This case illuminates how a postcolonial field of articulation in Cambodia reformulates classical bioethics.

“In the Realms of Ritual and Enchantment: Imagination and Recovery in the Aftermath of the Khmer Rouge” by Eve Zucker
Date : November 30, 12:00 noon
Language :English
Venue : Yale University, Room 203, Luce Hall, 34 Hillhouse Avenue, New Haven, CT 06511, United States
Abstract : Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in the foothills of the Cardamom Mountains in Cambodia and insights from Graeber, Bloch, Bauchelard and others—this talk explores role of the imagination in recovery from in the aftermath of the war and genocide. It suggests that the generative quality of the imagination makes it a unique site for restoring humanity and remaking social worlds. Imagination is considered in both its transcendental and transactional forms through the stories, rituals and everyday lives.

CALL FOR PAPER
CFP Congrès Asie : Peut-on faire le bilan du Tribunal hybride des Khmers rouges à Phnom Penh, 2007-2017 (Les Cours extraordinaires auprès des Tribunaux Cambodgiens – CETC)?
En lien avec le Congrès Asie 2017
Langue : Français
Résumé : Appel à candidatures pour former un panel qui aborderait les thèmes soulevés par le Procès des Khmers rouges.
Mots-clefs : Communisme. Génocide-politicide. Crimes contre l'humanité. Entreprise criminelle concertée. Camps de travail. Communes populaires. Tortures. Ruralisation. Prisons. Guerre froide. Totalitarisme.
Argumentaire : Ce qu'on appelle le Tribunal des Khmers rouges a fait l'objet de nombreuses critiques d'ordre pratique, juridique et politique. On a souligné qu'il vient trop tard, a état établi trop loin du centre de la capitale et traîne en longueur. On lui reproche d'avoir limité les responsabilités pour les crimes dans le temps (du 17 avril 1975 au 7 janvier 1979) et dans l'espace en écartant les interférences de pays étrangers, comme le Vietnam, la Chine ou les Etats-Unis. Surtout, les juristes lui reprochent de ne pas avoir respecté les standards internationaux d'administration de la justice. On l'accuse de s'être laissé manipuler par le pouvoir en place à Phnom Penh qui a refusé de laisser témoigner des acteurs essentiels du drame, de pousser les juges à insister longuement sur le « génocide » des Vietnamiens, par exemple, et passer sous silence les centaines de milliers de victimes cambodgiennes du réseau de prisons qui couvrait tout le pays, ou même à n'évoquer que très peu la famine généralisée, le travail forcé et l'abolition de l'enfance. Il reste que le procès a eu des conséquences bénéfiques pour le pays : celui de Duch surtout, qui a parlé non seulement tout au long de son procès mais, par deux interventions au cours du 2e procès, a fait des fracassantes révélations sur le mode de chasse à l'ennemi et de gouvernance de l'État révolutionnaire. Un dialogue intergénérationnel a pu s'établir et les Khmers sont beaucoup mieux renseignés sur nature et le pourquoi de cet État totalitaire.
Deadline : 14 octobre 2016

Reconsidering Urban Boundaries in Contemporary Southeast Asian Cities
Related to the AAS in Asia conference in Seoul on the 24-27th June 2017
Session organizers : Danielle Labbé and Gabriel Fauveaud (Université de Montréal)
Abstract : Southeast Asian cities experienced unprecedented changes since the 1990s. Over the two last decades, new built forms and functions (e.g., masterplanned communities, multifunctional high-rise towers, shopping malls, etc.) and market-oriented planning strategies played important roles in transforming inner-cities and peripheral zones, public and private spaces along with urban dwellers’ sense of urbanity. In exploring these transformations, a significant part of the literature relies on concepts and interpretations derived from the Western urban experience (e.g. fragmentation, socio-spatial inequalities, privatization of planning, etc.) that emphasize the emergence of new socio-spatial boundaries in Southeast Asian cities (e.g. gated enclaves, exclusive access to new technologies) and the hardening of existing ones (e.g. individual vs community, public/private, urbanites/rural migrants). In this panel, we are inviting papers that look beyond and interrogate the divisive, segregative and isolating aspects of new socio-spatial, infrastructural, technological and political-institutional forms and functions in contemporary Asian cities. The session seeks promote comparative study grounded in diverse theoretical and methodological approaches. Contributions from a variety of disciplinary perspectives (geography, urban planning, anthropology, history, area studies, etc.) by senior or junior scholars with research focused on any Asian urban region(s) are most welcome. The panel will offer a broader discussion of opportunities and challenges of urban scholarship in the region’s rapidly changing contexts.
Deadline : November 20th
How to submit a paper : If you are interested in presenting a paper, please send a 250-words abstract to Danielle Labbé ( danielle.labbe@umontreal.ca ) and Gabriel Fauveaud ( gabriel.fauveaud@umontreal.ca )
by November 20th
. Note that we cannot offer financial assistance to participants. However, interested participants can apply for travel support to the conference organization.
