I seek a National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship to support me financially while I revise my dissertation, "One Nation Divisible: The Unmaking of Soviet People in Tatarstan, Russia." It has been accepted by S. Frederick Starr, Chair, Central Asia and the Caucasus Institute at Johns Hopkins University, for publication in his edited series, “Studies on Central Asia and the Caucasus,” pending revisions. I foresee the revisions required to prepare my book for publication taking one year. They will consist of three parts: a brief follow-up research trip to Tatarstan; library research; and extensive rewriting. Receiving a NEH Fellowship would allow me to make my work the best possible contribution to scholarship in the humanities.
