The
FRINGE Centre is based at the UCL Institute of Advanced Studies and
funded by the UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies. Our
interest lies in the hidden complexity of all embedded practices, and
more broadly in the intricacies that 'embeddedness' as such
entails. This inspires our conviction that an innovative area
studies-not just the accumulation of local knowledge, but rather an area studies without borders-must assume a critical position within current academic inquiry.
