SUMMARY:Safeguarding Scholarship: Autocratization, Institutional Autonomy, and Academic Freedom in Southeast Asia (1)
LOCATION:Classroom B 50
DESCRIPTION:Academic freedom stands as a cornerstone of higher education wo
 rldwide, enabling scholarly inquiry, innovation, and the cultivation of inf
 ormed citizenship in diverse political landscapes. While substantial schola
 rship has examined its principles and challenges in contexts like Europe an
 d North America, as well as emerging studies on Asia, significant gaps pers
 ist in understanding its dynamics within Southeast Asia’s rapidly evo
 lving authoritarian and democratic hybrids. This oversight gravely undermin
 es efforts to safeguard intellectual autonomy, risking the erosion of democ
 ratic resilience, ethical research practices, and institutional vitality in
  a region pivotal to global geopolitical shifts.\nThis double panel directl
 y confronts this lacuna by thematizing the interplay of autocratization, re
 search cultures, and institutional autonomy with academic freedom across So
 utheast Asia. It showcases, for instance, assessments of how varying politi
 cal regimes influence freedom and autonomy; explorations of research norms 
 that foster critical thinking amid autocratic pressures; evaluations of hig
 her education autonomy constrained by neoliberal trends; and country-specif
 ic cases from Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand illustrati
 ng judicial protections, constitutional frameworks, and strategies against 
 suppression.\nUltimately, this double panel enrich broader discourses on hu
 man rights and knowledge economies, revealing pathways for regional and glo
 bal advocacy to fortify academia as a bulwark against authoritarianism and 
 a driver of societal progress.
