-- Sponsor: Kroc (Joan B.) Institute for International Peace Studies
-- SYNOPSIS: The Visiting Research Fellows Program seeks to bring outstanding researchers focused on peace research to the University of Notre Dame for all or part of the 2009-10 academic year.
-- Deadline: 11/15/2008
-- Web Site: http://kroc.nd.edu
-- Program URL: http://kroc.nd.edu/visiting_fellows/visitingfellows0910.shtml
-- OBJECTIVES: Fellows conduct research and work on their research projects while fully participating in the life of the Institute; explore collaborations with other researchers in their area; interact informally with Kroc Institute faculty, staff, and faculty fellows in the broader Notre Dame community; and present a lecture about their research early in their residence. The selected fellows are expected to collaborate with the Institute's permanent faculty and research staff on research related to an existing Institute emphasis. Accordingly, applicants must apply for a fellowship in one of these four substantive areas: The practice and theory of peacebuilding (local, regional, and global), including the origins of armed conflict as they relate to peacebuilding; The role of global norms, networks, and institutions in the prevention of armed conflict (including projects on economic sanctions, ethics and the use of force, humanitarian intervention, and globalization, social change, and social movements); The comparative study of peace processes; and The role of religion (especially Christian-Muslim relations) in conflict and peacebuilding.
-- ELIGIBILITY: Only applicants at the post-doctoral (junior) and senior scholar level will be considered.
-- FUNDING: Junior fellows receive a stipend of up to $20,000 per semester; senior fellows receive up to $25,000 per semester. Housing is provided in furnished Institute apartments at no cost. Fellows have office space, library and internet access, and document retrieval services.
