The Center for Asian Democracy at the University of Louisville invites applications for its new Visiting Fellows program for the 2008-2009 academic year. Fellows are expected to be in residence with the Center from 1 August 1, 2008 through 31 May 2009, and will receive a stipend of US$40,000.
Applicants need to demonstrate their competency in Asian studies with a solid record of publications. The fellowship will be ideal for recent PhDs whose work is related to democratization in Asia, and senior scholars on sabbatical leave. Some teaching experience is a plus. Fellows have the option to teach one course per year in their area of expertise and present their research in a public forum.
Created in 2006 with a substantial endowment, the Center is in the process of hiring an endowed chair, publishes a book series with the University Press of Kentucky, runs a speakers series, and will hold conferences and workshops on a regular basis. The Centers research covers South, East, Southeast and Central Asia. For details about the Center, please visit our website: http://louisville.edu/asiandemocracy
