The LEWI Working Paper Series is an endeavour of LEWI to foster dialogues among institutions and scholars in the field of East-West studies. It was launched in April 2002 and serves as a forum for the speedy and informal exchange of ideas as scholars and academic institutions attempt to grapple with issues of an inter-cultural and global nature. Seventy-two papers have been published so far and we welcome papers in any academic field related to East-West studies and from authors within and outside of our LEWI consortium. For further information, please contact Miss Hidy Ng at hidyng@hkbu.edu.hk or visit http://www.hkbu.edu.hk/~lewi/publications.html#4 for details about ordering and submitting a manuscript.
