Mixed Roots Japan ミックスルーツ・ジャパン: Towards a Japan Model of a Multicultural Society
The Mixed Roots Academic Forum is now in its third year, hosted by Osaka University GLOCOL and planned by Mixed Roots Japan. With the aim of promoting “firsthand social dialogue”, various panel discussions, performances, and short film screenings are organized.
In the absence of a formal academic recognition of the subject of mixed roots studies in Japan, we are especially working hard to connect various academics and the development of young researchers by providing them a venue for presentation. Out participation is not limited to the Kansai region—presenters and acdemics converge from as far as Okinawa, Sendai, and the United States.
We are also collaborating with the bi-annual Hapa Japan Conference organized by Prof. Duncan Williams (formerly at UC Berkley), which will be held at University of Southern California in April 2013.
Please email us for inquiries and RSVPs.
