MESEA, The Society for Multi-Ethnic Studies: Europe and the Americas, was founded in response to the challenge of ethnic studies in a time of increasing globalization to provide an international forum for interdisciplinary discussion on multi-ethnic studies. The Society promotes the study of the ethnic cultures of Europe and the Americas in their circumatlantic relations from a transdisciplinary literary, historical and cultural studies perspective. The society acts as a forum for cooperation between universities, political institutions and ethnic communities as well as supports the scholarly and cultural exchange between them in order to further multi-ethnic understanding.
