【What is ASOC?】

ASOC (Asian Studies Online Consortium) is a research and education group organized by East Asian researchers, and exploring new research and education methods using online networks under the COVID-19.  

【Key Theme: Political Change and Democracy in Asia 】

Elections have emerged as a significant regional issue in Asia. Democracy in this region is layered, touched by crises, potential threats, and conflicts from both a global and regional viewpoint. A comparative approach is essential to fully comprehend these dynamics. Social media, with its vast influence, stands out, especially when discussing human rights and the spread of fake news. The intertwining of gender and political dynamics provides a unique perspective to discern the region's political setting. Pressing topics like climate change merge with human rights, instigating intricate discussions. An exploration of the relationship between democracy and religion in Asia is vital; highlighting the delicate cultural and political fabric of the continent.
