European Society for Central Asia Studies (ESCAS)
Department of Oriental Studies, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The
Netherlands
Self-description: "ESCAS [was established in 1985] to give Central
Asian Studies the status of a separate research field in its own
right, independent of Soviet and Eastern European studies, to
establish research links with disciplines working within the same
historical and cultural continuum in adjacent areas, and to create
opportunities for direct cooperation between scholars of the former
Soviet Central Asia and scholars in adjacent areas. [Past
conferences:] ESCAS I, Utrecht (1985); ESCAS II, London (1987); ESCAS
III, Paris (1989); ESCAS IV, Bamberg (1991); ESCAS V, Copenhagen
(1995); ESCAS VI, Venice (1998)."
