The Mahindra Humanities Center offers one-year postdoctoral fellowships in connection with the Center’s Andrew W. Mellon Foundation seminar on the topic of migration and the humanities. The Center intends to focus on practices and processes of violence involved in large-scale historical and political transformations. The ongoing, incremental processes of slow violence may be manifested in the degradation of social and economic structures, the violation of cultural forms and practices, and the fraying of ethical and political systems. Slow violence endangers the security and sustainability of the quality of life.
Stipend: Fellows will receive stipends of $70,000, medical insurance, additional research support of $2,500, and (for those not already in residence in Greater Boston) $1,500 in moving expenses.
Applicants must have received their PhD within the past 2 years. Applicants without their PhD must demonstrate that they will receive the PhD by August of next year. CV. Detailed statement of research project. One chapter or article-length writing sample. 3 letters of recommendation.
