The present director is Ton Dietz. The institute is located in the Pieter de la Court Building of Leiden University’s Faculty of Social Sciences. ==Research== The main objectives of the African Studies Centre (ASC) are to promote and undertake scientific research on Sub-Saharan Africa in the social sciences and humanities, to function as the main focal point for African studies in the Netherlands and contribute to education and teaching in this field, and to promote the dissemination of knowledge and an understanding of African societies. The research programme of the African Studies Centre for the period 2012-2016 is entitled ‘African Dynamism amidst Global Restructuring’. It will focus on four major fields of enquiry, with flexible and shifting emphasis by its members of staff and members of the ASC Community temporarily present at the ASC. The four fields of enquiry are: # African trajectories of improved well-being, and its impact on people and resources # Mediating identities of Africans in Africa and beyond # Constellations of Governance in Africa: historical and contemporary studies # Africa’s connections to the World: Africa negotiating an increasingly multi-polar world 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Afrika-Studiecentrum, Leiden」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
