The Atlantic Studies Initiative (ASI) focuses on the circum-Atlantic flow of peoples, cultures, goods, and capital. Inaugurated in January 2001, it explores the interaction and interdependencies of Atlantic cultures from Africa to Europe and across the Americas and the Caribbean. ASI promotes graduate curriculum development and research collaborations between the Center for Afroamerican and African Studies, Program in the Comparative Study of Social Transformations, Center for European Studies, and Latin American and Caribbean Studies Program at U-M and the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies at Michigan State University. It sponsors a predoctoral fellowship program for students working with the UM's Clements Library collections, as well as seminars, symposia, and lectures by visiting scholars and artists. This initiative is sponsored by the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies; International Institute; College of Literature, Science, and the Arts; and Office of the Provost.
