Gender and Globalization in Asia and the Pacific:
Rockefeller Foundation Post-Doctoral Humanities
Fellowships
The Office for Women's Research and the Women's
Studies Program, 
University of Hawai`i

What is meant by globalization, and how are women
active in, and acted 
upon by, the processes involved in globalization? 
This program, under 
the auspices of the Office for Women's Research and
the Women's Studies 
Program at the University of Hawai`i, is focused on
addressing these 
and related questions.  Research themes include: 
women and economic 
transformation; women's health globally;
migration/refugees/diaspora 
movements and communities; militarism and global
violence; domestic 
violence and victimization; gender, race and
representation; global 
connections of indigenous peoples; and reparation
movements and 
interracial justice.  We seek scholars from
Asia-Pacific and other 
nations who wish to extend or initiate work on gender
and globalization 
within an Asia-Pacific context.  Work that spans and
links diverse 
disciplines and addresses one or more of the themes
will be 
particularly favored, as will work that speaks to
audiences both inside 
and outside of the university.  The University of
Hawai`i is uniquely 
positioned to support the cross-disciplinary study of
the complex 
dynamics connecting gender and race to globalization. 
Our location at 
the hub of the Pacific Rim makes this an ideal site
for bringing 
together scholars from around the world to study the
complex and 
changing faces of globalization.  The diverse ethnic
and racial 
population of the islands, with its own complex
history of western 
colonialism and labor immigration from Japan, China,
the Philippines 
and elsewhere makes Hawai`i itself a microcosm of
globalization within 
its own shores.
