Summary/Abstract: The 9th Conference of the Australia, New Zealand and Oceania Research Association Oceania – Centre of the Pacific Rim. Kraków, (October 21, 2017), The Institute of Middle and Far East Studies and the Australia, New Zealand and Oceania Research Association (ANZORA).The Australia, New Zealand and Oceania Research Association (ANZORA) organized its 9th conference under the title Oceania – Centre of the Pacific Rim. For the first time in the ANZORA’s history, the whole organizing process was made with another partner, that is the Institute of Middle and Far East Studies at the Jagiellonian University in Cracow. Therefore the place of the speeches was not anymore outside the University but within the main building – the Auditorium Maximum. Despite the fact that ANZORA is an independent association, most of its founders graduated the Jagiellonian University. In addition, Dr Dariusz Zdziech, author of the idea of gathering academics and enthusiasts of the Pacific in a formal association, works himself in the Institute of Middle and Far East Studies.
