The Weatherhead Initiative on Global History (WIGH) at Harvard University identifies and supports outstanding scholars whose work responds to the growing interest in the encompassing study of global history. We seek to organize a community of scholars interested in the systematic scrutiny of developments that have unfolded across national, regional, and continental boundaries and who propose to analyze the interconnections—cultural, economic, ecological, political and demographic—among world societies.

A brief description

The Stone Center for Latin American Studies at Tulane University, which includes a core community of 70+ faculty across a broad spectrum of disciplinary and professional fields, invites applications for a post-doctoral fellowship for the 2024-2025 academic year.

Appointment: September 1, 2024—August 31, 2026

The initiative Ukrainian Research in Switzerland (URIS) is calling for applications for one URIS fellowship for the 2019 autumn semester at the University of Basel (Switzerland). The internationally oriented fellowship programme is open to postdoctoral and senior scholars in the humanities, cultural studies and social sciences whose research has the potential to make a substantial contribution to a better
understanding of the history, society, politics and culture of Ukraine.

Postdoctoral fellowships provide opportunities for talented early-career scholars to spend a dedicated period of time pursuing their research with access to Harvard’s world-renowned resources.

The Postdoctoral Fellowship program invests in future leaders in academia—political scientists, anthropologists, historians, and humanists, among others—who generate big ideas that spark new conversations and deep insights about the region.
