Presenter: Hanson Park (Prof., Dept. of Anthropology, SNU)

As the international status of Korea is rising and the current Korean government’s development cooperation strategy plan for Africa grew in size, it became necessary to form a critical discourse on the existing African development cooperation policy. Following this trend, SNUAC’s Asia-Africa Center is hosting Africa Seminars to create the basis for basic research in Korea’s development cooperation with Africa and to foster a field of networking for scholars. This seminar will share an anthropological approach to the Mycaean people of Madagascar to analyze and understand the regional characteristics of Africa.
