This proposal seeks funding from the NEH for the period July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2014 to support 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 15 fellowships 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. |
