Local Remembering and National Forgetting: Memory Politics in Modern China. This project aims to explore the politics of local remembering and national forgetting, and their roles in shaping state-society relationships in modern China. The project expects to generate new insights into key narratives of China’s recent past, and how they are recast by local museums to counter official discourses that elevate certain memories and suppress others. Expected outcomes include enhancing theoretical and ....Local Remembering and National Forgetting: Memory Politics in Modern China. This project aims to explore the politics of local remembering and national forgetting, and their roles in shaping state-society relationships in modern China. The project expects to generate new insights into key narratives of China’s recent past, and how they are recast by local museums to counter official discourses that elevate certain memories and suppress others. Expected outcomes include enhancing theoretical and empirical knowledge of the roles of heritage and memory in China’s contemporary cultural politics. Significant benefits to Australia will include new knowledge towards a more nuanced and multidimensional understanding of China’s priorities in cultural politics, especially in the Asia-Pacific region.

Planet Chicken: Chemical Entanglements in Asia's Poultry Boom . This project aims to study the effects of Asia’s rapidly expanding chicken meat industry on environmental degradation, social inequality, public health and animal welfare. Agricultural chemicals and veterinary drugs saturate this industry, with little regulation or data on types, quantities and applications. Deploying interdisciplinary methods at key nodes of the chicken value chain in India, Thailand and Vietnam, this study will 1) ....Planet Chicken: Chemical Entanglements in Asia's Poultry Boom . This project aims to study the effects of Asia’s rapidly expanding chicken meat industry on environmental degradation, social inequality, public health and animal welfare. Agricultural chemicals and veterinary drugs saturate this industry, with little regulation or data on types, quantities and applications. Deploying interdisciplinary methods at key nodes of the chicken value chain in India, Thailand and Vietnam, this study will 1) examine practices and market structures that shape chemical use and 2) uncover chemical presence and socio-ecological impacts. The project intends to expose how toxicity, biodiversity, and health interact with global food systems and to propose interventions for effective governance of factory farming in Asia.Read moreRead less

Volatile Rivers and the Infrastructure Politics in the Mekong Region. This project focusses on the challenge of repurposing large-scale hydraulic infrastructures to serve climate objectives, and aims to advance understanding of changing entanglements of rivers, infrastructure, and power relations in a time of climate change. It expects to contribute novel insights into water and climate change governance within and beyond the Mekong Region. Bridging political-ecology and infrastructure studies, ....Volatile Rivers and the Infrastructure Politics in the Mekong Region. This project focusses on the challenge of repurposing large-scale hydraulic infrastructures to serve climate objectives, and aims to advance understanding of changing entanglements of rivers, infrastructure, and power relations in a time of climate change. It expects to contribute novel insights into water and climate change governance within and beyond the Mekong Region. Bridging political-ecology and infrastructure studies, planned outcomes include conceptual innovations that advance critical studies on river engineering. The project should benefit policy-makers, practitioners and advocacy groups in the Mekong and in Australia seeking to improve interventions and strengthen the coping strategies of vulnerable riverine communities.
