REQUEST FOR INPUT- Dissertations in Central Asian Studies
:: Ensure your inclusion in the "Dissertations in Central Asian
Studies" webpage -- and your colleagues', too.
Dear Colleagues:
We request your assistance in expanding the information in the
reference resource, "Dissertations in Central Asian Studies." This
is an on-line resource which aims to include all doctoral (or
equivalent) dissertations in Central Asian/Eurasian Studies. It has
been in existence for two years and includes hundreds of
dissertations, but we want to be sure that it is as complete as
possible.
Please help us to ensure that your information and that of your
students and/or colleagues is included.
We are putting together a page on the <Central Asian Studies World
Wide> website which is devoted to highlighting the "new" people in
the field, by listing their dissertations and some other key
information. The list is to include those who have received PhD-
equivalent degrees in the last 8 years in any field of Central Asian
studies, who made significant use of materials pertaining to Central
Asia in their PhD dissertation.
The purposes of this resources include:
* To make cutting-edge research more widely known.
* To help conference organizers and journal editors to find people
doing work on relevant topics.
* To make the younger generation of experts better known to
consumers of expertise in the media, government, international
organizations, the business world, etc.
* To help prospective dissertation writings to learn what topics
have already been "taken" and identify viable topics for their
dissertation work.
* To help prospective graduate students to identify institutions
which have supported PhDs on topics related to their interests.
* To provide an access point to important research which is not yet
published.
* To help publishers find good manuscripts.
* To help potential employers find good job candidates.
Your assistance is requested in making this as complete and useful
tool as possible. If you represent a university department or other
institution, you may wish to submit information on your graduates
(so that the strength of your institution shows in this list). If
you know of scholars who should be included, please alert them to
this, or help us to fill the gaps. Please have a look at it at, and
submit information yourself and/or other scholars from your
institution:
http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~casww/CASWW_Diss.html
If you do not have access to the web for submitting your
information, please send us an email at <casww@fas.harvard.edu> and
we will send you a form you can fill out using email.
The dissertations are arranged by field and indexed by Subject,
Institution, and Author, so it is a pretty good way to see how our
field is developing -- and the more comprehensive it is, the better,
so please contribute.
Thank you very much for your cooperation!
John Schoeberlein
