Welcoming Words

Dear Visitor,

welcome to the WISC (World International Studies Committee) web page. For the next three years the organizing tasks of the WISC will be conducted from the University of Ljubljana, its Faculty of Social Sciences. We hope that we will be as successful as our predecessor and dear colleague, John Groom from Kent University.

The WISC is a network of different national and international professional associations dealing with international relations and related disciplines. The goal of the WISC is to bring together as many academics dealing with different aspects of international studies as possible, scholars from all over the world.

We are at the beginning of a thorny and exhausting path, yet it is surely along the line of our professional awareness and intellectual duties. We hope that by browsing through these pages you will adopt the idea of the WISC, to encourage national associations you might be in touch with to join the WISC network and contribute to its work, as well as to encourage individuals even from the most distant places to come to the next WISC conference.

Bojko Bučar, Executive Secretary
