حنينة الحنينة إزي الأحوال. لا أظن أنها تعادل درجة جامعية. ودي بعض التفاصيل لأجلك سلامي إيمان ........ Annual Fellowships Competition
Each year the Carnegie Council offers up to six nonresidential fellowships to mid-career scholars, practitioners, journalists, and other professionals, selected from a pool of hundreds of applicants. See list of current fellows and their projects.
The successful candidates have research proposals that closely match the Carnegie Council’s ongoing areas of study: Human Rights, Ethics and the Use of Force, Reconciliation, Environmental Values, and Justice and the World Economy.
Fellows deepen the resources of our core program areas, and in turn program staff provide access to the Carnegie Council’s work and its network of experts. At the end of the fellowship year, fellows are encouraged to suggest ways in which their findings can contribute to the future research agenda of the Carnegie Council and to discuss possibilities for further collaborative research.
Download 2004-2005 application guidelines and cover sheet (PDF: 60KB, 3 pages). Note: You can also print out just the cover sheet from this print-friendly page.
Eligibility The program is open to junior scholars and mid-career professionals worldwide. Individuals from developing countries are encouraged to apply. All fellows must be fluent in English.
Fellows must make a commitment to fulfill the three main elements of the program: • attend two week-long workshops in New York City, the first at the start of the program year for orientation, the second at the end of their fellowship year to present a final paper. These workshops are usually held during the third week of June. • participate in the Council program area to which the fellow has applied. • submit written reports at the midterm stage and conclusion of the fellowship year.
Because of the importance of maintaining contact with Council staff throughout the fellowship year, access to e-mail is a requirement for eligibility.
Themes Fellowship proposals must show a clear linkage to one of the Carnegie Council's core program areas:
Environmental Values: Proposals should focus on an issue related to environmental policy and ethics. Of particular interest are proposals to research international environmental governance, and those that emphasize values, scale, transnational networks, and development. Proposals to study the significance of local vs. global values in international environmental governance, and the values that are embedded and deployed in international environmental negotiations are encouraged.
Ethics and the Use of Force: Fellows should focus on questions concerning the justice and legitimacy of the use of military force. Possible areas of investigation include: international legal norms governing the use of force; the ethics of humanitarian intervention; the legitimacy of unilateral vs. multilateral uses of force; the religious underpinnings of war and peace; causality aversion; civil-military relations; ethical concerns related to new technologies and the revolution in military affairs; and the ethics of strategic bombing. Comparative research is strongly encouraged.
History and the Politics of Reconciliation: Fellows should be involved in research and analysis of issues relating to the theme of how societies come to terms with past injustices and how long-term reconciliation among former enemies (within or among nations and faiths) can be promoted. Topics which might be considered include: the ethical dilemmas of reckoning with the past; the role of public education in examining a difficult history and promoting reconciliation, including education through schools and museums; the roles of different actors in promoting reconciliation, including the state, religious organizations, civil society organizations, international organizations; the national and international politics of history textbooks, and; places of commemoration. Specific case studies may also be considered.
Human Rights: Fellows will carry out field-based research on building public legitimacy for a specific human rights concern. The research topic should be highly relevant to policymakers and the themes of the Carnegie Council's Human Rights Initiative. Research based in Southern Hemisphere countries or economies in transition is encouraged. The fellow will be a national of, or have long-term experience in, the country of research as well as have local language fluency.
Justice and the World Economy: Fellows will develop projects that investigate the ethical significance of global institutional arrangements. Projects could include: (1) evaluating the justice of global institutions such as capital and labor markets, rights to private property, sovereign taxation rights, the management of sovereign debts, governance of natural resource extraction, the structure of intellectual property rights, and the process of political decision-making in international bodies; or (2) developing and justifying proposals for the reform of these institutions.
Length of Appointment The length of the fellowship is one calendar year, from June of the year of the appointment to June of the following year.
Stipend The fellowship carries a stipend of $5,000 and covers all hotel and travel expenses to and from Council events in New York City.
Application Requirements Applications must include the following:
Cover sheet (print-friendly page) Resume or curriculum vitae Letter of support from your home institution (if applicable) Abstract of the research proposal (not to exceed fifty words) Research proposal (not to exceed 1500 words) The proposal should describe and explain:
project goals and rationale workplan linkage to Carnegie Council Studies area(s) how the fellowship would enhance the candidate's professional development.
