PHD FUNDING, UNIVERSITY OF ABERDEEN
Applications are invited for PhD research topics
that focus on artistic re-enactments of performances
from across the former communist and socialist
countries of Central, Eastern and South-Eastern
Europe in recent artistic practice. There are
numerous examples of artistic re-enactments
across the region, providing scope for a range of
dissertation topics. Projects can include
comparative studies, for example, of the relevance
of re-enactments in one local tradition versus that
of another; or single-country studies of a number
of re-enactments being staged in one context.
Dissertations will address the following research
questions: what are the various functions of
artistic re-enactments of performances in Eastern
Europe? How do these functions compare with
current understandings of re-enactment in the
West? How can re-enactments be used to access a
lost or inaccessible history (such as performance
art in Eastern Europe)? Also welcome are
proposals that consider revisiting culturally
relevant or historically significant places by artists
or within the context of artistic re-enactments.
Selection will be made on the basis of academic
merit. Individuals with a strong research
background in the field of Eastern European
contemporary art and/or performance art, from
either an art history or visual culture background,
are encouraged to apply. Applicants should have
the necessary language skills needed to undertake
the proposed research, and should consider
funding sources for travel to conduct field
research abroad if it is necessary to the proposed
project.
The project is funded by a University of Aberdeen
Elphinstone Scholarship, which covers the cost of
tuition fees, whether Home, EU or Overseas, and
will be awarded through an open competition.
Interested applicants should contact the lead
supervisor in the first instance, with a project
proposal.
Deadline for all applications: 30 May 2016

“INCUBATOR” | FUNDING OPPORTUNITY & CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Incubator 2017 @ Stanford University
Advancing Early-Career Scholarship in the Digital Age
Incubator, a new initiative powered by Dissertation Reviews, is seeking proposals for its inaugural early-career residency program, to be held in 2017. Incubator focuses on identifying and supporting innovative, intellectually rigorous, and engaging projects that harness digital tools and human-centered organization to advance early-career scholarly communication and early-career scholarly infrastructure.
In collaboration with the DHAsia program at Stanford University, the inaugural 2017 Incubator will focused on Asia broadly writ, including East, South, Southeast, and Inner/Central Asia.
About Dissertation Reviews
Founded in 2010, Dissertation Reviews set out to accomplish one goal: to expose the scholarly world to cutting-edge PhD dissertations across the Humanities and Social Sciences, and to foster unprecedented levels of engagement with early-career scholarly communities.
In 2016, we announced the accomplishment of this goal.
Over the course of six intense years, DR profoundly changed the way scholars think about dissertations and early-career scholarship. Once limited to an exceedingly narrow readership — one’s committee, family, and close colleagues — the dissertation as a genre was unleashed. In one of the most widely read reviews, for example, thousands of visitors learned of Catherine Bronson’s Imagining the Primal Woman: Islamic Selves of Eve, with many more visiting the 1000-plus dissertation reviews, reflections, and archive reviews published since 2010.
Never before had dissertations been considered a genre worthy of “review” in such a thorough and public way. DR took up this challenge, and in the process, helped give rise to a new global community. Our readership rapidly grew to over 1,000,000, with visitors hailing from the US, UK, India, Canada, Germany, Australia, Japan, Singapore, China, Turkey, the Philippines, France, Italy, Israel, and dozens of other countries. Our team of editors, moreover, has itself hailed from more than two dozen countries.
About Incubator
In 2016, Dissertation Reviews will complete the process of becoming a registered Not-for-Profit organization — yet another exciting development in DR’s history. This transformation enables us to support independent scholarly efforts that build upon the legacy of DR, especially ones that take our legacy in new and unpredictable directions.
Incubator is the project development wing of the Dissertation Reviews Non-Profit Organization: a seed grant initiative that seeks out and helps develop innovative, intellectually rigorous, and engaging independent projects that harness digital tools and human-centered organization to advance early-career scholarly communication and early-career scholarly infrastructure — podcasts, consortia, web platforms, and more — through the provision of seed funding and managerial advice. Directed by Tom Mullaney (Stanford University) and Jennifer Lambe (Brown University), Incubator will support up to 3 projects each year, with the manifestations of the project being syndicated on the main Dissertation Reviews website to its millions of readers.
About DHAsia | Our 2017 Collaborators
Entering its second year, DHAsia is a cutting-edge initiative at Stanford University focused on the intersection between Digital Humanities and the study of South, Southeast, East, and Inner/Central Asia. Directed by Tom Mullaney (Associate Professor of Chinese History), DHAsia is supported by the Stanford University Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA), the Stanford Center for East Asian Studies (CEAS), the Stanford Confucius Studies Institute, as well as a number of other departments and programs on campus. For more information, please visit www.dhasia.org .
ELIGIBILITY
Early-career scholars working on Asia are eligible to submit one (1) project each for review by the Incubator-DHAsia steering committee. For this application, “early-career” is defined as any scholar whose career stage is between (a) the rank of advanced, post-orals, ABD PhD student currently enrolled in a PhD program; through (b) the rank of pre-tenure Assistant or Associate Professor (recent PhDs are eligible as well, regardless of employment status, as are Postdoctoral Research Fellows or the equivalent). For the 2017 Incubator series, eligible applicants must work on Asia, primarily or substantially, and disciplines and time periods are welcome to apply. Future years will focus on different regions and/or themes.
SUPPORT AND TIMEFRAME
Up to three (3) project applications will be selected for the 2017 Incubator program. The project director for each project will be invited to Stanford campus during either Winter or Spring 2017 for an intensive 2- to 3-day residency featuring: (a) a 45-minute research talk; (b) a hands-on clinic introducing your project to faculty, students, librarians, archivists, technologists, and invited guests; and (c) a schedule of one-on-one meetings with key members of the Stanford community and Silicon Valley.
In collaboration with DHAsia, Incubator will provide the invited resident an honorarium of $500, as well as all travel, lodging, and meals.
The deadline for applications is June 15, 2016. Materials should be submitted via email to incubator@dissertationreviews.org and must include:
Cover letter summarizing the project, and explaining how it advances cutting-edge scholarly communication, research, teaching, and/or infrastructure in your field.
CV
Two references including contact information (please do NOT request or provide letters of recommendation – but references may be contacted as part of application review process)
Applicants will be informed of the committee’s decision by no later than August 15, 2016.

Expectations
Kluge Fellows will give one public presentation of their research and provide a final report on their research and its results. Two copies of any ultimate product of this research (book, article, film, website, etc.) should be sent to the Library of Congress. Kluge Fellows will also have opportunities to meet with Library specialists and curators, and on occasion with Members of Congress and Congressional staff.
Awards
Up to twelve Kluge Fellowships will be awarded annually by the Library of Congress. Awards will be announced in the spring of the year following that in which the application is due. For overseas Fellows, award letters will address visa questions and include a form which must be filled out and submitted to the Library of Congress to determine tax residency status and the potential for U.S. Federal income tax withholding. Scholars who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents and who do not already have a U.S. Social Security number will be required to obtain either a Social Security or tax identification number, as appropriate, at the start of their fellowship at the Library, regardless of the taxability of their income under this program or exemption under a treaty with the United States. Transportation arrangements are the responsibility of each Fellow. Housing is not provided by the Library of Congress. The Library of Congress does not supply health insurance coverage but can provide contacts with commercial providers. Because the United States does not have a national health plan, if a selectee becomes ill or injured during the term of appointment, there is no provision for care.

INTRODUCTION TO CONCEPTUAL HISTORY
Summer school for PhD students and advanced level Master’s degree students
8 August to 19 August
University of Helsinki
In the summer of 2016 the eleventh annual summer school “Introduction
to Conceptual History” will take place in Helsinki, at the University
of Helsinki and its Centre for Nordic Studies. The summer school is
jointly organized by Concepta: International Research School in
Conceptual History, The Political Concepts Standing Group of the
European Consortium of Political Research (ECPR), and the research
projects “The Political Rhetoric of Isms” and “Asymmetries in European
Intellectual Space at the University of Helsinki”. An international
team of distinguished scholars and visiting lecturers have been
engaged to stimulate the participants into a critical discussion
around key concepts in politics, as well as in the social sciences and
the humanities.
The summer school seeks to familiarize younger scholars with theories
and practices of conceptual history and the study of political
concepts, opening various perspectives on political theorizing and
studying political practices. The aim of conceptual history is to
analyze the ways in which concepts and ideas are operationalized in
political and social life through the study of their migration,
translation, reinterpretation and diffusion through time and space.
Conceptual analysis involves looking at larger semantic, discursive,
ideological and rhetorical settings in which concepts are given
meaning, and demands familiarity with a variety of linguistically
oriented approaches to discourse and ideology, as well as to rhetoric.
An international team of distinguished scholars and visiting lecturers
have been engaged to stimulate the participants into a critical
discussion. The course will introduce the fundamental aspects of the
theory and methodology of conceptual history (discussing the work of
scholars such as Reinhart Koselleck, Quentin Skinner, John Pocock,
Michel Foucault, and Pierre Rosanvallon), which the students are
encouraged to use as tools in their own research. On this basis, a
focus will be put on different cases of conceptual change, emphasizing
the inherently political character of language and rhetoric in the
usage of concepts. Further, contemporary trends in conceptual history
will be explored through case studies presented by the students as
well as visiting lecturers.
The course includes lectures, seminars and workshops.
We welcome PhD and advanced Master’s degree students from various
academic fields.

RE-ORDERING DIVERSITY: HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE IN THE CONTEXT OF FORCED MIGRATION AND DISPLACEMENT
4 - 8 July 2016
Summer School
Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen (Germany)
Application Deadline: 30 April 2016
Forced migration and displacement are controversially debated issues in current public and political discourse. A rhetoric of threatened order manifests itself alongside attempts to frame the situation as manageable, or even as a chance.
Considering the resulting challenges that politics and practitioners are facing, the need for a more thorough academic engagement becomes apparent. On the one hand, it is paramount to collect a corpus of data which will enable a better theorization of the issues at hand; on the other hand, academics have to take responsibility as the ‘informed consultants’ politicians and practitioners are in need of.
The Summer School will take place from 4th until 8th July 2016 at the University of Tuebingen, as a cooperation between the Collaborative Research Center (CRC) 923 “Threatened Order – Societies under Stress”, the Center for Gender and Diversity Research, and the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity (Göttingen).
We welcome applications from PhD students and early career researchers from social and cultural anthropology, sociology, political science, and related fields of cultural studies and social sciences. The aim of the Summer School is to learn about and discuss relevant topics and academic approaches through a dialogue between different agents from the field: academics, practitioners, and refugees.
*************
Both those people categorized as ‘refugees’ and the societies receiving them are extremely diverse. Due to a lack of academic expertise and theorization, this aspect has so far been only marginally acknowledged in the German-speaking context. In the field, this often results in irritations and complex conflicts between agents, in which a perceived threat against one’s own group dominates the discourse.
In collaboration with researchers from diversity studies, and taking into account the CRC’s model of ‘threatened order’, the summer school will deal with these issues and work towards finding answers to the following questions:
Which forms of diversity are articulated in the context of forced migration and displacement?
What new forms of diversity emerge?
Which mechanisms of order do involved agents and institutions apply (‘re-ordering’)?
The Summer School provides a platform for dialogue between different agents from the field (researchers, practitioners, refugees), who, together, will develop hypotheses and further questions. The goal is to find ways to theorize and frame forced migration and displacement in terms of questions of diversity, humanitarian assistance and ‘threatened order’, and especially to integrate and specify topics from ongoing and emerging research projects.
Aside from a close cooperation between the research institutes, involving practitioners and refugees has a high priority within our concept. The idea is to pursue research not about them, but collectively as a joint effort.

DOCTORAL AND MASTERS FELLOWSHIPS / АСПИРАНТУРА И МАГИСТРАТУРА
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PHD FUNDING, UNIVERSITY OF ABERDEEN
Applications are invited for PhD research topics
that focus on artistic re-enactments of performances
from across the former communist and socialist
countries of Central, Eastern and South-Eastern
Europe in recent artistic practice. There are
numerous examples of artistic re-enactments
across the region, providing scope for a range of
dissertation topics. Projects can include
comparative studies, for example, of the relevance
of re-enactments in one local tradition versus that
of another; or single-country studies of a number
of re-enactments being staged in one context.
Dissertations will address the following research
questions: what are the various functions of
artistic re-enactments of performances in Eastern
Europe? How do these functions compare with
current understandings of re-enactment in the
West? How can re-enactments be used to access a
lost or inaccessible history (such as performance
art in Eastern Europe)? Also welcome are
proposals that consider revisiting culturally
relevant or historically significant places by artists
or within the context of artistic re-enactments.
Selection will be made on the basis of academic
merit. Individuals with a strong research
background in the field of Eastern European
contemporary art and/or performance art, from
either an art history or visual culture background,
are encouraged to apply. Applicants should have
the necessary language skills needed to undertake
the proposed research, and should consider
funding sources for travel to conduct field
research abroad if it is necessary to the proposed
project.
The project is funded by a University of Aberdeen
Elphinstone Scholarship, which covers the cost of
tuition fees, whether Home, EU or Overseas, and
will be awarded through an open competition.
Interested applicants should contact the lead
supervisor in the first instance, with a project
proposal.
Deadline for all applications: 30 May 2016

“INCUBATOR” | FUNDING OPPORTUNITY & CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Incubator 2017 @ Stanford University
Advancing Early-Career Scholarship in the Digital Age
Incubator, a new initiative powered by Dissertation Reviews, is seeking proposals for its inaugural early-career residency program, to be held in 2017. Incubator focuses on identifying and supporting innovative, intellectually rigorous, and engaging projects that harness digital tools and human-centered organization to advance early-career scholarly communication and early-career scholarly infrastructure.
In collaboration with the DHAsia program at Stanford University, the inaugural 2017 Incubator will focused on Asia broadly writ, including East, South, Southeast, and Inner/Central Asia.
About Dissertation Reviews
Founded in 2010, Dissertation Reviews set out to accomplish one goal: to expose the scholarly world to cutting-edge PhD dissertations across the Humanities and Social Sciences, and to foster unprecedented levels of engagement with early-career scholarly communities.
In 2016, we announced the accomplishment of this goal.
Over the course of six intense years, DR profoundly changed the way scholars think about dissertations and early-career scholarship. Once limited to an exceedingly narrow readership — one’s committee, family, and close colleagues — the dissertation as a genre was unleashed. In one of the most widely read reviews, for example, thousands of visitors learned of Catherine Bronson’s Imagining the Primal Woman: Islamic Selves of Eve, with many more visiting the 1000-plus dissertation reviews, reflections, and archive reviews published since 2010.
Never before had dissertations been considered a genre worthy of “review” in such a thorough and public way. DR took up this challenge, and in the process, helped give rise to a new global community. Our readership rapidly grew to over 1,000,000, with visitors hailing from the US, UK, India, Canada, Germany, Australia, Japan, Singapore, China, Turkey, the Philippines, France, Italy, Israel, and dozens of other countries. Our team of editors, moreover, has itself hailed from more than two dozen countries.
About Incubator
In 2016, Dissertation Reviews will complete the process of becoming a registered Not-for-Profit organization — yet another exciting development in DR’s history. This transformation enables us to support independent scholarly efforts that build upon the legacy of DR, especially ones that take our legacy in new and unpredictable directions.
Incubator is the project development wing of the Dissertation Reviews Non-Profit Organization: a seed grant initiative that seeks out and helps develop innovative, intellectually rigorous, and engaging independent projects that harness digital tools and human-centered organization to advance early-career scholarly communication and early-career scholarly infrastructure — podcasts, consortia, web platforms, and more — through the provision of seed funding and managerial advice. Directed by Tom Mullaney (Stanford University) and Jennifer Lambe (Brown University), Incubator will support up to 3 projects each year, with the manifestations of the project being syndicated on the main Dissertation Reviews website to its millions of readers.
About DHAsia | Our 2017 Collaborators
Entering its second year, DHAsia is a cutting-edge initiative at Stanford University focused on the intersection between Digital Humanities and the study of South, Southeast, East, and Inner/Central Asia. Directed by Tom Mullaney (Associate Professor of Chinese History), DHAsia is supported by the Stanford University Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA), the Stanford Center for East Asian Studies (CEAS), the Stanford Confucius Studies Institute, as well as a number of other departments and programs on campus. For more information, please visit www.dhasia.org .
ELIGIBILITY
Early-career scholars working on Asia are eligible to submit one (1) project each for review by the Incubator-DHAsia steering committee. For this application, “early-career” is defined as any scholar whose career stage is between (a) the rank of advanced, post-orals, ABD PhD student currently enrolled in a PhD program; through (b) the rank of pre-tenure Assistant or Associate Professor (recent PhDs are eligible as well, regardless of employment status, as are Postdoctoral Research Fellows or the equivalent). For the 2017 Incubator series, eligible applicants must work on Asia, primarily or substantially, and disciplines and time periods are welcome to apply. Future years will focus on different regions and/or themes.
SUPPORT AND TIMEFRAME
Up to three (3) project applications will be selected for the 2017 Incubator program. The project director for each project will be invited to Stanford campus during either Winter or Spring 2017 for an intensive 2- to 3-day residency featuring: (a) a 45-minute research talk; (b) a hands-on clinic introducing your project to faculty, students, librarians, archivists, technologists, and invited guests; and (c) a schedule of one-on-one meetings with key members of the Stanford community and Silicon Valley.
In collaboration with DHAsia, Incubator will provide the invited resident an honorarium of $500, as well as all travel, lodging, and meals.
The deadline for applications is June 15, 2016. Materials should be submitted via email to incubator@dissertationreviews.org and must include:
Cover letter summarizing the project, and explaining how it advances cutting-edge scholarly communication, research, teaching, and/or infrastructure in your field.
CV
Two references including contact information (please do NOT request or provide letters of recommendation – but references may be contacted as part of application review process)
Applicants will be informed of the committee’s decision by no later than August 15, 2016.

For English speakers who seek to do research in the Library's foreign language collections, there must be evidence that they have a command of the relevant language or languages at the level requisite for serious research.
Expectations
Kluge Fellows will give one public presentation of their research and provide a final report on their research and its results. Two copies of any ultimate product of this research (book, article, film, website, etc.) should be sent to the Library of Congress. Kluge Fellows will also have opportunities to meet with Library specialists and curators, and on occasion with Members of Congress and Congressional staff.
Awards
Up to twelve Kluge Fellowships will be awarded annually by the Library of Congress. Awards will be announced in the spring of the year following that in which the application is due. For overseas Fellows, award letters will address visa questions and include a form which must be filled out and submitted to the Library of Congress to determine tax residency status and the potential for U.S. Federal income tax withholding. Scholars who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents and who do not already have a U.S. Social Security number will be required to obtain either a Social Security or tax identification number, as appropriate, at the start of their fellowship at the Library, regardless of the taxability of their income under this program or exemption under a treaty with the United States. Transportation arrangements are the responsibility of each Fellow. Housing is not provided by the Library of Congress. The Library of Congress does not supply health insurance coverage but can provide contacts with commercial providers. Because the United States does not have a national health plan, if a selectee becomes ill or injured during the term of appointment, there is no provision for care.

INTRODUCTION TO CONCEPTUAL HISTORY
Summer school for PhD students and advanced level Master’s degree students
8 August to 19 August
University of Helsinki
In the summer of 2016 the eleventh annual summer school “Introduction
to Conceptual History” will take place in Helsinki, at the University
of Helsinki and its Centre for Nordic Studies. The summer school is
jointly organized by Concepta: International Research School in
Conceptual History, The Political Concepts Standing Group of the
European Consortium of Political Research (ECPR), and the research
projects “The Political Rhetoric of Isms” and “Asymmetries in European
Intellectual Space at the University of Helsinki”. An international
team of distinguished scholars and visiting lecturers have been
engaged to stimulate the participants into a critical discussion
around key concepts in politics, as well as in the social sciences and
the humanities.
The summer school seeks to familiarize younger scholars with theories
and practices of conceptual history and the study of political
concepts, opening various perspectives on political theorizing and
studying political practices. The aim of conceptual history is to
analyze the ways in which concepts and ideas are operationalized in
political and social life through the study of their migration,
translation, reinterpretation and diffusion through time and space.
Conceptual analysis involves looking at larger semantic, discursive,
ideological and rhetorical settings in which concepts are given
meaning, and demands familiarity with a variety of linguistically
oriented approaches to discourse and ideology, as well as to rhetoric.
An international team of distinguished scholars and visiting lecturers
have been engaged to stimulate the participants into a critical
discussion. The course will introduce the fundamental aspects of the
theory and methodology of conceptual history (discussing the work of
scholars such as Reinhart Koselleck, Quentin Skinner, John Pocock,
Michel Foucault, and Pierre Rosanvallon), which the students are
encouraged to use as tools in their own research. On this basis, a
focus will be put on different cases of conceptual change, emphasizing
the inherently political character of language and rhetoric in the
usage of concepts. Further, contemporary trends in conceptual history
will be explored through case studies presented by the students as
well as visiting lecturers.
The course includes lectures, seminars and workshops.
We welcome PhD and advanced Master’s degree students from various
academic fields.

RE-ORDERING DIVERSITY: HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE IN THE CONTEXT OF FORCED MIGRATION AND DISPLACEMENT
4 - 8 July 2016
Summer School
Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen (Germany)
Application Deadline: 30 April 2016
Forced migration and displacement are controversially debated issues in current public and political discourse. A rhetoric of threatened order manifests itself alongside attempts to frame the situation as manageable, or even as a chance.
Considering the resulting challenges that politics and practitioners are facing, the need for a more thorough academic engagement becomes apparent. On the one hand, it is paramount to collect a corpus of data which will enable a better theorization of the issues at hand; on the other hand, academics have to take responsibility as the ‘informed consultants’ politicians and practitioners are in need of.
The Summer School will take place from 4th until 8th July 2016 at the University of Tuebingen, as a cooperation between the Collaborative Research Center (CRC) 923 “Threatened Order – Societies under Stress”, the Center for Gender and Diversity Research, and the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity (Göttingen).
We welcome applications from PhD students and early career researchers from social and cultural anthropology, sociology, political science, and related fields of cultural studies and social sciences. The aim of the Summer School is to learn about and discuss relevant topics and academic approaches through a dialogue between different agents from the field: academics, practitioners, and refugees.
*************
Both those people categorized as ‘refugees’ and the societies receiving them are extremely diverse. Due to a lack of academic expertise and theorization, this aspect has so far been only marginally acknowledged in the German-speaking context. In the field, this often results in irritations and complex conflicts between agents, in which a perceived threat against one’s own group dominates the discourse.
In collaboration with researchers from diversity studies, and taking into account the CRC’s model of ‘threatened order’, the summer school will deal with these issues and work towards finding answers to the following questions:
Which forms of diversity are articulated in the context of forced migration and displacement?
What new forms of diversity emerge?
Which mechanisms of order do involved agents and institutions apply (‘re-ordering’)?
The Summer School provides a platform for dialogue between different agents from the field (researchers, practitioners, refugees), who, together, will develop hypotheses and further questions. The goal is to find ways to theorize and frame forced migration and displacement in terms of questions of diversity, humanitarian assistance and ‘threatened order’, and especially to integrate and specify topics from ongoing and emerging research projects.
Aside from a close cooperation between the research institutes, involving practitioners and refugees has a high priority within our concept. The idea is to pursue research not about them, but collectively as a joint effort.
