Announcement follows
The Harriman Institute of Columbia University announces two postdoctoral fellowships for the academic year 2008-9 for the study of Russian/Soviet influence in the Mediterranean Area.
Winning candidates will be contributing to a three-year research project dedicated to "Great Power(s) in the Mediterranean" coordinated by the Institute for the Study of Europe. The goal is to reconsider the role of the Mediterranean in modern European identity, with the fellows highlighting Russian and Soviet imperial influence in the region. By speaking of Great Power in the singular, the project wants to highlight the soft power dimensions of competing military and political hegemonies, including claims on resources, shifting global trade networks, religious proselytism and models of development. The time
framework is roughly 18th century to the present, including the Cold War era. The project welcomes expertise on the relations with Russia/Soviet influence of other imperial forces in the area (from the Ottoman and
Western European Powers to the Americans) as well as
of indigenous and post-colonial movements and states. In addition to conducting their own research, the fellows will help run workshops and other initiatives
associated with the project.
Postdoctoral awards are residential and normally run for the academic year, September-May. In addition to the stipend and a research space, fellows have access to Columbia University research facilities.
Candidates must have completed their dissertations
within five years of taking up the Fellowship.
Deadline for applications is March 1, 2008, with the
awards to be announced in early April.
To apply, please send a 750 word research plan; curriculum vitae, a representative article or dissertation chapters, and three letters of recommendation to:
