This proposal seeks funding from the NEH for the period July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2014 to support the ACLS fellowship program, American Research in the Humanities in China (ARHC). We have successfully administered this program since 1995, providing scholars with access to archives and other collections in China, and nurturing collegiality among U.S. scholars and their Chinese counterparts. The ARHC program deepens American understanding of China. No other national fellowship program focuses exclusively on humanities research in China. No other organization could do it as well as ACLS, because of the combination of our record of achievement in China studies, our expertise in designing and administering national fellowship competitions, and finally, because of the competence of our representative office in Beijing in helping U.S. scholars navigate the practical difficulties and bureaucratic obstacles of working in China. |
