2002-2003 INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH GRANTS
RECONCEPTUALIZING PUBLIC SPHERES IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA

The Middle East & North Africa (MENA) Program of the SSRC is pleased to announce its second annual grant competition supporting international collaborative research focusing on the MENA region, which is defined as stretching from Iran to Morocco. We invite proposals that bring together researchers in different locations to address issues related to the changing nature of public spheres in the region. The notion of “public spheres” is used in a broad sense, encompassing the transformation of socio-economic conditions, state and non-state structures, individual and collective identities and cultural production.

The research grants awarded will be for a maximum amount of $35,000 and for a maximum period of 18 months. The competition is open to PhD holders of any nationality or discipline. The deadline for preliminary proposals is November 15, 2002.
