RA-50121-13 | Research Programs: Fellowship Programs at Independent Research Institutions | American Council of Learned Societies Devoted to Humanistic Studies | ACLS/SSRC/NEH International and Area Studies Fellowships | 1/1/2014 - 6/30/2015 | $71,600.00 | Steven | C. | Wheatley | | | | American Council of Learned Societies Devoted to Humanistic Studies | New York | NY | 10017-6706 | USA | 2013 | Area Studies | Fellowship Programs at Independent Research Institutions | Research Programs | 61600 | 10000 | 61600 | 10000 | Eighteen months of stipend support for 1 to 2 fellowships for one year and a contribution to defray costs associated with the selection of fellows.
This proposal seeks funding for the period beginning January 1, 2014 and ending June 30, 2017 for the ACLS/SSRC/NEH International and Area Studies Fellowships. The program is integrated into the central ACLS Fellowship competition in acknowledgement that 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 as they are supported both by grant funds and by ACLS endowment funds. This proposal requests funding for 72 fellowship months per year to postdoctoral scholars working on Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, Eastern Europe, or the former Soviet Union in all disciplines of the humanities and related social sciences. |
