Law and Culture Fellowship
Center for the Study of Law and Culture, Columbia University
2005-2006
The Center for the Study of Law and Culture at Columbia
University invites applications for residential fellowships
for the 2005-2006 academic year to undertake research,
writing and discussion in ways that span traditional
academic disciplines. The CSLC welcomes scholars from any
field who are interested in spending the academic year in
residence at Columbia Law School working on scholarly
projects related to the CSLC's 2005-2006 theme: Recognition.
The Law & Culture Fellowship is available to senior graduate
students and post-doctoral candidates.
Founded in the fall of 2000, the Center for the Study of Law
and Culture is an initiative at Columbia Law School designed
to facilitate interdisciplinary study, research and
scholarship on the intersections of law and culture. Our
goal is to make the CSLC an institutional site for
coordinating and coalescing the important, yet dispersed,
interrogations of the relationship between law and culture
that are already being undertaken across disciplines at
Columbia University. By promoting and providing a home for
cross-disciplinary engagement and collaboration, the CSLC
will enrich each of our individual projects in law and
culture studies.
Fellows will receive a stipend of $30,000, an office,
computer, eligibility for university housing, and full
access to university libraries, computer systems and
recreational facilities. Fellows will be expected to
participate in CSLC activities and will present a paper at
the Center's Colloquium Series.
Applicants should submit:
- a curriculum vitae
- a writing sample
- a research statement (of approximately 1,000 words) that
* describes the proposed work during the fellowship period
* explains the project's significance to the topic of
Recognition
* sets forth it's interdisciplinary nature
- two letters of recommendation.
Applications are due February 14, 2005.
Faxed or e-mail applications will NOT be accepted.
Women, people of color, non-US and independent scholars are
particularly invited to apply.
