IIAS has begun its second decade of existence with verve. In systems, migration, religious tensions, climate change and 2004, IIAS welcomed more than ninety fellows from twenty-five environmental degradation, job creation, conflict resolution and different countries. Among these fellows were the first disease control, to name but a few!

Besides the mono-disciplinary and region-based research projects that IIAS has been hosting and keeps encouraging, the W.A.L. Stokhof research activities that were started more recently are mostly Director multi-disciplinary - the social sciences, humanities, and the ‘harder’ sciences - and supra-regional.

Furthermore, IIAS launched a new short-term (three-month) fellowship that enables young post-docs who very recently defended their thesis to write a follow-up proposal and apply for post-doctoral fellowships offered by national and international sponsors.

In 2004, the institute was involved in 56 international seminars, lectures and institutional events, some of the highlights of which were the 7th International Philippine Studies Conference, the NATO-sponsored conference on social stability and democratic governance in central Asia, the 8th Asia-Europe Young Leaders Symposium and the international seminar on India-China relations. This final symposium was the first in a series intended to encourage Indian and Chinese researchers trained in the social sciences and humanities to compare their countries. It is mind-baffling when one realizes how little either country knows about the other’s background and present socio-economic and political situations. In close co-operation with our Alliance member, CERI, the next seminars are scheduled to take place in New Delhi (2005), Beijing (2007), Paris (2008), and once more in Leiden (2009).

Asian studies have always been a significant element of

European scholarship; in fact, they are a part of the shared ] cultural heritage of Asia and Europe. As I have said before, I am

convinced that the future of Asian studies lies in Asia. Foreword Nonetheless, this should not deter non-Asians from studying the | p 3 p region in all its facets and forms. The most pressing reason for [ Europe to pursue Asian studies is that Europe can only sustain its scientific position through co-operation with Asian partners in multi-disciplinary research.

Now that the world, including academia, looks at the developments in East Asia and their far-reaching consequences for politics, economies and societies, research jointly carried out by Asian and European scholars is an obvious and much- welcomed step. Rooted in the social sciences, the humanities, and interactions of these two with other sciences, such research will focus on issues of relevance to both regions, Europe and Asia: issues such water management, energy security and sustainability, welfare Contents Section 1 IIAS and its Organization / 7

The research programmes are co-funded by IIAS and partner organizations as well as (inter) national funding agencies. Initiatives are defined as ideas that are in the process of being worked out into a research programme. These ideas can come from the director, the academic coordinator , the board, the academic committee or individual fellows and are usually ‘tested’ by organizing a workshop. Subsequently, a designated fellow in cooperation with IIAS staff writes a research proposal to apply for funding. IIAS is currently working on a few of such initiatives. The networks are former IIAS research programmes, which have ended succesfully and afterwards have been changed into networks of researchers and experts. The coordinators of these networks still organize workshops and facilitate the publication of research results.

Besides the fellows involved in these programmes and networks, IIAS yearly hosts a high number of individual fellows. Besides research fellows (those involved in IIAS research programmes and initiatives) and network fellows (those involved in IIAS networks), IIAS yearly hosts a high number of individual fellows. These fellows are called affiliated fellows and are sponsored by various agencies. In 2004, more than ninety fellows from twenty-five different countries visited IIAS in Leiden and Amsterdam. The shift in the area of research that was set in last year continued in 2004. The broadening of the scope of IIAS on the humanities and social sciences and their interaction with other sciences has led to a more topical diversity. Some examples of these new areas of research are economics, genetics, law, medicine, and space technology. In 2004, IIAS welcomed fellows sponsored by: Ailion Foundation, the Netherlands; Amsterdam School for Social Science Research (ASSR), the Netherlands; Canon Foundation, the Netherlands; Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), China; Gonda Foundation, the Netherlands; Indo-Dutch Programme on Alternative Development (IDPAD), India/the Netherlands; Korea Research Foundation (KRF), Korea; Leiden University,

To understand these processes, she conducts fieldwork in hospitals and genetic counselling clinics.

The ‘space age’ has had dramatic effects in all nations and especially in Asia where India, China and Japan have achieved considerable success in building up indigenous space technology and applications, and have become what is known as space-faring nations. Other Asian nations have readily embraced these applications, and new and innovative satellite applications are being created each year with potential revolutionary effects, such as in the field of health and telemedicine, distance education, crime prevention (piracy on the high seas), disaster monitoring and mitigation (e.g. floods and forest fires), food and agriculture planning and production (crop monitoring). Space imaging is also becoming a tool for archeological exploration and survey for the preservation of cultural heritages. The high technology of Space contributes to economic growth and many developing nations in South East Asia are pursuing active programs to further the applications of space technology in their economies and also to acquire their own capabilities, by means of technology transfer and diffusion.

IIAS has launched a new initiative to catalyse research on the topic of Asian space and is involved in the organization of a series of interdisciplinary conferences.

Short description: In 2004 the international ABIA Project, with offices in Asia and The Netherlands, consolidated its network for maintaining the ABIA Index bibliographical database on South and Southeast Asian art and archaeology. The two (part-time) ABIA editors at the International Institute for Asian Studies, Dr E.M. Raven and Drs G. Theuns-de Boer, collect and process data on western publications and publish these on the internet at www.abia.net. The office receives continued financial support from the J. Gonda Foundation of the KNAW in Amsterdam. In 2004 the Leiden editors at IIAS completed and largely finalized their contribution of 400-450 annotated records, selected from the Leiden database, to appear in print in ABIA Index Volume 3. This volume is under preparation at the Colombo office. In close cooperation with the Leiden office, ARP Software continued to ] work on the ABIA software, mostly now focusing on means to handle multiple databases and create subsets of data.

The MA programme Comparative Asian Studies (MACAS) went into its second year. This new master programme that brings together the expertise of various specialists in Asian Studies from various Dutch universities, including the universities of Leiden, Nijmegen, Amsterdam, and the Free University, was successful in attracting significantly more students. Like in its first year, the MACAS was organized by Asian Studies in Amsterdam and the IIAS branch office, and a large number of staff members from various institutions of the University of Amsterdam participated in this programme as lecturers. The IIAS secretariat played an important role in the organization of the annual Inter-University MA courses on South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia. Both the brochures and the promotion of these courses fell under the responsibility of the Branch Office secretariat. ] Fifteen fellows from seven different countries visited the IIAS Branch Office. Among them was the poet in residence Dr Vishnu Khare from India. The Branch Office also hosted three fellows from India working on a joint Dutch-Indian research project on transnational migration and information and communication technology. Two fellows continued their research on political developments in Central Asia.
