Transnationalism and the Changing Concepts of Peacebuilding in Southeast Asia

我研究的第一年在三个方面有效地实现了我的目标。首先，我成功地对已建立联系的社区进行了实地访问。这包括访问印度尼西亚西帝汶和东帝汶的不同东帝汶社区。我还实地考察了新的地区，特别是印度尼西亚的望加锡市。在这次访问中，我成功地追踪了望加锡和东帝汶之间的贸易和宗教联系。第二个成就与我的研究传播有关，我在柏林的欧洲东南亚研究协会（EuroSEAS）会议上成功组织了一个小组，探讨东南亚的基层建设和平。我的小组由澳大利亚昆士兰大学的一位高级讲师、德国哥廷根大学的一位研究员和我自己组成。我们有10个人参加了我们的会议，我们进行了建设性和富有成果的讨论。最终结果即将公布。在这方面，我已经为《亚洲法律与社会杂志》完成了一篇文章，并为阿姆斯特丹大学出版社完成了另一本书的章节。这两篇论文都已经通过了同行评议阶段，目前正处于文字编辑阶段，并计划在今年年底前发表。

The first year of my research has been effective in achieving my goals in three ways. First, I successfully undertook field visit to communities where I have established contacts. This includes a visit to different East Timorese communities in Indonesian West Timor as well as Timor-Leste. I also conducted field visit to new areas particularly the Indonesian city of Makassar. In this visit I successfully traced the trade and religious links between Makassar and Timor-Leste. The second achievement is related to the dissemination of my research where I successfully organized a panel to explore Grassroots Peacebuilding in Southeast Asia in the European Association of Southeast Asian Studies (EuroSEAS) conference in Berlin. My panel consisted of a senior lecturer from the University of Queensland, Australia, a research fellow from Gottingen University, Germany and myself. We had 10 people attended our session where we constructive and fruitful discussion. The final outcome is on publication. In this regard, I have finalized an article for Asian Journal of Law and Society and another book chapter for Amsterdam University Press. Both papers have passed the peer-reviewed stage and now in the copy-editing process and scheduled to be published before the end of the year.
