Welcome Message from PSCJ2010
To the participants of PSCJ2010:
On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the Second Philippine Studies
Conference of Japan (PSCJ2010), it is with great pleasure that I welcome you all to theSecond Philippine Studies Conference of Japan to be held at the International Congress
Center Epochal Tsukuba in Tsukuba, Japan.
The year 2010 marks the realization of a second international forum organized by
specialists of Philippine Studies from Japan and abroad, in partnership with theInternational Conferences on Philippine Studies (ICOPHIL). We had first – the PSCJ2006,
at Ichigaya, Tokyo. The goal of PSCJ2010 is to arrive at a discussion of the various
approaches and issues to Philippine Studies using cross-cultural and interdisciplinary
perspectives.
The main theme is Remapping the Philippines in the Globalizing World.
Undoubtedly, the twenty-first century has drastically changed the life-world where we live.
People, information, technology, capital, ideologies, and images are in continuous flux,
moving beyond its traditional setting of local, regional, and national boundaries at atremendous scale. The Philippines is no exception. Impacts of globalization haveincreasingly permeated all aspects of Filipino life and society.
Specifically, the aim of the Conference is to explore the powerful but subtle ways inwhich globalization has shaped the Philippines and the lives of Filipinos, politically, socially,economically and culturally within local, regional, national and global arenas. Particularly, it
will examine how larger and complex patterns of interaction between the state and local
community have shaped the multi-dimensional identities and experiences of Filipinos astransnational migrants abroad, either inside the Philippines or abroad, in the context of theglobalizing world.
We thank you for your participation. We wish you all a pleasant stay at Tsukuba.
