A Platform for Diverse Perspectives:

CESS conferences have been pivotal in fostering dialogue and scholarly exchange since 2000. The 2024 edition is no exception, offering up to 70 panels and expecting around 300 participants. The event is well-known for its diverse format, including traditional panels, roundtables, scholarship-in-progress, and author-critic forums, providing a dynamic platform for academic discussion.

About CESS:

Founded in 1999 and incorporated as a non-profit in 2001, the Central Eurasian Studies Society aims to facilitate communication among scholars of the region, promote high standards of scholarship, and foster public interest in Central Eurasia.

The CESS Annual Conference 2024 promises to be a converging point for diverse scholarly insights and an enriching platform for academic discussions, continuing its tradition of excellence and global participation.

To our Russian colleagues:

Central Asia is our common field - and a Conference in Central Asia seems a great opportunity to reconnect academic worlds, at a time when direct contact between Russia and the West is limited and there is an urgent need for more interactions and dialogue between experts and scholars from different origins. This conference aims at building bridges in such a divided world, navigating and overcoming polarizations. We would greatly appreciate it if you could attend this event, present your research, share your knowledge, and discuss your conclusions with us. 


...and don't forget the next event on your calendar: the Joint Meeting CESS-ESCAS "Geopolitics, Migrations and Identities in Central Eurasia'' - an in-person conference to be held in Lisbon (Portugal) on January 8/10, 2025. Stay tuned for more information.
