The ASN Annual Conference gives scholars of American Studies, both from China and the greater Asian region, a chance to come together to network, share research, and develop joint projects. Participants come from universities throughout China, and graduate students are also encouraged to submit papers for graduate students panels, and attend other sessions of the conference to further their own scholarship. Distinguished speakers from the US are also invited to participate as speakers and panelists.
The conference rotates annually around China, and has been held in Chengdu, Changchun, Kunming, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Bejiing, and Wuxi.
USCET also provides a comprehensive collection of past papers from our 2006 and 2010 ASN Annual Conferences, as well as information on our publications, free electronic PDFs of publications, and discounted rates on hard copies of the most recent ASN conference publication, The Power of Culture.
