Agrarian Studies Yale University
An interdisciplinary Program in Agrarian Studies will be offering four to six Postdoctoral Fellowships tenurable from September 2004-May 2005. The Program is designed to maximize the intellectual links between Western and non-Western studies, contemporary work and historical work, the social sciences and the humanities in the context of research on rural life and society. Fellowships include a stipend of $40,000 per academic year. Fellows must have finished the dissertation before taking up the fellowship. We also encourage applications from knowledgeable “activists” and public intellectuals” whose work on rural life transcends the academy. They are expected to reside in New Haven, pursue their own research, and participate in a colloquium series on the broad theme: “Hinterlands, Frontiers, Cities, and States: Transactions and Identities.” The deadline for receipt of the first stage of applications for 2004-2005 is January 2, 2004.
