About
our Research Circles:
Research Circles, sponsored
by the International Institute, are designed to create new
forms of area knowledge that cross traditional regional and
disciplinary borders. They involve Madison faculty and graduate
students from various disciplines in the humanities and social
sciences. Circle participants regularly meet to study common
concerns of global significance that involve multiple world
regions. Their activites include organizing various series
of speakers, workshops, conferences, courses, and carrying
out collaborative research on topics of common interest.
Some circles belong to collaborative networks of researchers
worldwide as well as throughout the U.S. Funding for the
circles comes from the International Institute and from the
Global Studies Program.
