2008, mark an important anniversary in the history of
the International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological

 |
The ICAES through the years
|
| |
| 60 years has witnessed frequent changes
in leadership and venues, which meant that IUAES has
been international and active. It is true that a permanent
archive of IUAES has not yet been achieved. Therefore
it is worth referring back to the history of IUAES.
Now we are demonstrating the historical events of the
union, with photographs and publications of all the
congresses, such as the congresses, inter-congresses
and conferences of the committee, along with other aspects
of the union. |

| ¢ò. Exhibition of Academic
Achievements of the Institutes and Individuals (Poster
Session) |
Since the middle period of 19th
century when anthropology and ethnology came into
being, the researches in these fields have been active
in various aspects of social life and influential
on human society. At present, their research areas
have been extended to almost every respect of human
social life in the form of a large number of branches
of learning including applied projects. Anthropology,
ethnology and its branch have become important research
areas for long-term studies in different countries,
and the theory systems and research methods have been
gradually accomplished.
As a convention, the 2008 Congress encourages teaching
and research institutes of the anthropological and
ethnological sciences, professional committees, non-governmental
organizations and individual researchers to apply
for participation in the exhibitions to show their
research work. The exhibition will provide a good
platform for the participants to share their thoughts,
new ideas, to present their frontier research subjects,
to carry out international exchanges, dialogues and
cooperation for promotion of worldwide contact in
the fields.
The organizing committee will provide all participants
with the exhibition site free of charge.

| ¢ó. A Hundred Years of
China¡¯s Anthropology and Ethnology |
| Since the beginning of the 20th century,
the anthropological and ethnological sciences have developed
in China and have undergone frustrations ¨C from being
rejected to being accepted; from general introduction
through translation to construction of independent discipline;
and from following the Western¡¯s lead to equal dialogues.
A number of research institutes have been set up one
after another, and conferences on various subjects held
every now and then. The scholars, active in the social
reform and development of China, have received wide
acceptance and made remarkable achievements. |

 |
A Hundred Years of China¡¯s Anthropology
and Ethnology
|
| The anthropological and ethnological
sciences pay close attention to the peace and development
of humankind, the harmonious coexistence of different
ethnic groups, and the interpersonal equality and respect
of human society. With the rapid social and economic
development in China in the new era, there has been
an ever-lasting call for anthropological and ethnological
sciences and increasing recognition for the accomplishments
made in this field. During the Congress, we shall review
the development of anthropological and ethnological
sciences of the hosting country, China, in the past
100 years through the exhibition as to display the anthropological
and ethnological studies on relationships between the
human beings and the nature, individuals and the society
and contribution that anthropology and ethnology have
made to the social reform and development, including
policy-making on political, economic and social issues.
