Institute for Mediterranean Studies
The Institute for Mediterranean Studies (IMS) is an interdisciplinary institute that promotes, facilitates and publishes research in the field of Mediterranean Studies. The IMS provides a center for holistic research and analysis of the Mediterranean Area, as well as academic teaching on the region. The IMS’s objectives are: fostering the establishment of Mediterranean Studies in the European and Middle-Eastern Research Areas, publishing scholarly literature on the Mediterranean, and establishing collaborative networks of researchers, academics and Mediterranean organizations across the world by organizing international conferences, seminars and ongoing global collaborations.
==History==
While the area studies known as “Mediterranean Studies” have been established in France, Spain and the United Kingdom since the 1990s, the Mediterranean area has largely been regarded in Korea as a place for tourism rather than an academic subject. Furthermore, while there are many research institutes and university departments in Korea working on Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, an Institute considering the entire Mediterranean region has been missing, creating a need to inaugurate a tradition of studying the Mediterranean area as an academic entity. The IMS was founded in 1997 as the result of an initiative to establish an interdisciplinary research-intensive institute dedicated to the fields of the Mediterranean Studies in Korea. It is situated within Busan University of Foreign Studies (BUFS) and is currently the only research organization of its kind in Korea. During the course of a history spanning almost two decades, the IMS has been successful in attracting external funding for specific research projects, most notably from the Ministry of Education in Korea for its groundbreaking Humanities Korea (HK) project, as well as pursuing joint projects with other similar specialized centers.
The IMS produces outputs that are multifaceted and interdisciplinary. 1. In the field of academic research, it has published background analysis, professional publications, and socio-scientific publications including the ''Mediterranean Humanities'' Series. It also publishes an international ''Mediterranean Review'' (in English) and a domestic ''Mediterranean Area Studies'', two scholarly journals dealing with the history, culture, environment, economy, politics and societies of the Mediterranean. 2. In the field of academic teaching, it provides university seminars and lectures both on site at BUFS and overseas. 3. Finally, in the field of academic exchange, the Institute holds international conferences, lectures, public panel debates, and workshops in cooperation with a wide range of universities and research institutes in the Mediterranean Area and beyond. The IMS intends to contribute towards further establishing Mediterranean Studies beyond its frontiers of native Korea, and to link this research focus with established institutes working on Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, or the Western and Arab world in general.〔Institute for Mediterranean Studies (2007), ''Annex of the Institute for Mediterranean Studies''.〕
