Those willing to present their papers are invited to submit their proposals following the GUIDELINES FOR PRESENTER CANDIDATES described in the call for papers. The conference call for papers lasts from November 1, 2018 to January 31, 2019. The selected proposals will be communicated to their authors between December 2018 and February 2019. *INTRODUCTION* *The twenty-first century is emerging as the Asian century. During the first half of this century, the Asian region, extending from the Pacific Ocean to the Arabian Sea and northwards, to include Central Asia, is likely to establish itself as the new centre of the economic universe. This will draw to a conclusion three centuries of Western dominance over the world economic resources and for much of this time, its political spaces. This transformation in the world economic order will not be painless either for the East or for the West. Indeed, the transition has the potential for causing much grief to the world as no established order is likely to cede its hegemony without challenge.* *The significant point of departure during this phase of transition lies in the fact that the receding economic power of the West (also more broadly classified as the North), dominated by the United States (US), remains and is likely to remain in the immediate future the dominant military power. Historically, the dominant political power, whether it was Rome, Britain or the US was, within its own spheres of influence, also the dominant military as well as economic power. This erosion of the economic power of the West while retaining military dominance with the US and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies, does not bode well for an easy transition for the global order. * *[…]* *How the established powers of the West, led again by the US, will react to this changing balance of economic power towards Asia, which has narrowed their competitive space and domestic employment opportunities, remains a challenge for the leaders of the Western world. How far the hitherto dominant West will go to preserve their hegemony over their economic order remains critical in determining whether the Asian century will evolve peacefully or through a process of turmoil. *(Rehman Sobhan, *”The Political Economy of the Asian Century”* in Manoranjan Mohanty, Vinod C. Khana, Biswajit Dhar (eds.) with a foreword of Boutros-Boutros Ghali, *Building a Just World. Essays in Honour of Muchkund Dubey,* Inde, New Delhi, Orient Black Swan, 2015, pp. 144-161). The quotation above raises many questions : will military powers continue to determine the future of the world ? Can military forces establish a world order based on peace, justice and non-violence ? Does economic development entail military development ? Is economic power equal with military power ? Is there any other force than military that may rule the world locally and globally ? Do the weak, the poor, the marginalized, the dominated, the discriminated, the oppressed, the disadvantaged have any chance to change their state of being in a non-violent way ? It is to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi that the questions of world order based on peace, justice and non-violence are chosen to be the main subject of presentation and discussion of the third edition of The Rise of Asia Conference Series. It encourages the participation of scholars from a wide range of scientific disciplines (area studies, cultural studies, ecology, economics, geography, history, humanities, languages, management, political and social sciences…) and practitioners from diverse professional fields (business, civil society, education, enterprise, government, management, parliament, public policy, social and solidarity movements…), based in diverse geographical areas (Africa, North and South America, Australia, Asia, Europe, Pacific…). *SPECIAL SEANCES / ROUNDTABLES / WORKSHOPS *Special sessions/Roundtables/Workshops will be organised if there is enough number of proposals on the following topics: Asia-Africa Asia-Asia Asia-Eastern Europe Asia-Latin America Asia-Middle East-North Africa Asia-North America Asia-Pacific-Oceania Asia-Western Europe Asia-World System BRICS-World Order Culture-Literature -Religion-Spirituality Ecology-Architecture-Urbanism Gender-Women Issues Social and solidarity movements *De: *[email protected] *À: *"Sudarshan" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Sudarshan" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Sombath Somphone" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Nicanor Perlas" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Michel Bauwens" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Francois BAFOIL" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Guo Peiyuan" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Satish de Mel" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Apichai Puntasen" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Chea Vannath 2" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Chea Vannath" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Chalida Tajaroensuk" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Darwis Khudhori" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Takayoshi KUSAGO" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Ong Kung Wai" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Sharan Srinivas" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Sotha Ros" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Jarin Boonmathya" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Istvan Rado" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Silke Helfrich" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Jost Pachaly" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Wathana Onpanich" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, [email protected], [email protected], "Leif Olsen" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Rosana Tositrakul" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Rosana Tositrakul" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Prida Tiasuwan" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Rebeca Leonard" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Jacques-chai" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Pun-Arj Chairatana" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Supinya Klangnarong" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Ajarn Sulak" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Ajarn Surichai" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Apichai Puntasen" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Amara Pongsapich" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "teerana" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Montawadee Krutmechai" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "David Crookall" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Dasho Karma Ura" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Sangay Thinley" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Buddhina Nuntavorakarn" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Duangjai Rungrojcharoenkit" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "hans@schoolforwellbeing. org" <[email protected]> <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Khun Chitpong" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Patcharee Chonmanat" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Soraj Hongladarom" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Supit Knoop" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Surat Horachaikul" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Thanapol Kheolamai" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Wallapa" <[email protected]> <[email protected]> *Cc: *"Patcharee Chonmanat" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Supit Knoop" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Jost Wagner" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Wallapa" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Apple" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Somboon Chungprampree" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Fon" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "fonfah kanong" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Thanapol Kheolamai" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Thanutra Teerasuphaset" <[email protected]> <[email protected]>, "Woranut" <[email protected]> <[email protected]> *Envoyé: *Dimanche 28 Août 2011 15:31:51 *Objet: *School for Wellbeing Press Meeting FCCT Monday 29 August 19.30 Dear all resource persons and participants exchange platform Re-thinking Property, In the first place of course a very warm thank you to you all again for joining the exchange platform!
