This proposal seeks funding from the NEH for the period July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2011 to support the program of ACLS/SSRC/NEH Fellowships in International and Area Studies. The ACLS has successfully administered this and predecessor programs since 1978. The program is integrated into the central ACLS fellowship competition, since multi-disciplinary research characterizes not only area studies but much work in the humanities in general; area studies scholarship benefits from evaluation in this larger context. Integration of the programs maximizes the number of NEH Fellows, who are supported both by grant funds and by ACLS endowment funds. The program offers 15 fellowships a year to post-doctoral scholars in all disciplines of the humanities working on Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, East Europe, and the former Soviet Union. |
