*FROM*: Department of Cultures, Politics and Society, University of
Torino and Torino World Affairs Institute
*TOPIC*: TOChina Summer School
June 24th- July 5th, 2013
Turin, Italy
Two-week, intensive summer program on the politics, political economy
and foreign policy of contemporary China. The program is suitable for
both those wishing to study the domestic aspects of China’s politics and
for participants intending to explore the rapidly evolving dynamics of
Asian and global geopolitics and economics. For those looking for
insight into future career options TOChina offers a unique opportunity
to inquire with senior scholars who are often in charge of PhD programs
in their country, and affiliated to a variety of organizations. The
cherished informal sessions that TOChina instructors accept to have with
students after class are a trademark of TOChina’s hands-on approach.
The aim will be to work at the intersection between China’s long-term
structural transformations (in socio-political, economic and cultural
terms) and those particularly visible recent trends that inform
international debate at the present time. To secure pluralism of
disciplinary and intellectual perspectives, TOChina Summer School
faculty members include both academics and policy-experts, from a
variety of fields, including Economics, Economic History, International
Relations, International Political Economy, Political Culture, Political
Science, and Sociology.
Several scholarships are available, covering anything from tuition fees
to accommodation and meals. Please do check whether you may be eligible
for either a Zerotasse or a Freetorino scholarship.
Applications will be accepted as of Monday 11th March.
