SUMMARY:EU and ASEAN: World Regions as Ecumenes in the Making?
LOCATION:Room 0.18
DESCRIPTION:This panel is about understanding the EU and ASEAN as Internati
 onal Regions in the Making. We aim at moving beyond the scientifically trad
 itional economic-political explorations, towards a deeper understanding of 
 social reality constructions that strongly contribute to the making-of-the 
 world in the 21st century. Global dynamics, which are more intrinsic and co
 mplex than ever through the information age and network society, lead to ne
 w reality constructions within space and time. We argue that these global d
 ynamics are in need of translations, which therefore enable an interaction 
 compromise between top-down and bottom-up: political decision makers on one
  side, social actors and their identity building on the other side. Within 
 this world-at-large matter which remains rather unexplored in socio-cultura
 l debates, we aim at creating a constructive multidisciplinary debate about
  how social actors contribute to the shaping of shared world(s) beyond nati
 onal borders. \n\nTherefore, this panel targets the two main global players
  of the 21st century - both in economicpolitical and socio-cultural terms: 
 the EU and ASEAN. Both regions provide a very rich ground of national diver
 sities and identities which are in need of translation(s), through which th
 e construction of transnationally shared human spaces will be emphasized: d
 ifferent Ecumenes in the Making. We invite social scientists from all field
 s who focus on case studies and conceptual frameworks that concern the unde
 rstanding of the EU and ASEAN as ground(s) for mutual understanding between
  different nations, identities, realities and imaginations, potentially con
 tributing to a narrative of an intra- and transregional togetherness. These
  can be about pop culture ideologies, social movements, a current Zeitgeist
 , beyond border imaginations… and others, which reveal the building o
 f international regions from bottom-up as a constructive response to top-do
 wn dynamics. The EU and ASEAN are - due to their global relevance on innume
 rable levels - a rich ground for grasping and debating the future of humani
 ty: Beyond border interactions and worldviews for promoting conviviality.
