Deadline- 07 December 2012
Countries/Region- All Countries
Two Postgraduate Scholarships in Race and Ethnicity in the Global South are offered by University of Sydney with a good honours or masters degree in history, HPS, or anthropology to undertake research studies leading to a PhD.
The PhD topic should relate to the ARC Laureate Fellowship project, which focuses on the development and transmission of concepts of race and human difference in the southern hemisphere during the 20th century, especially on those ideas derived from biological or anthropological studies. Through comparative and transnational histories we seek to reveal influential debates over racial difference conducted by scientists, anthropologists and others across the global South. We are especially interested in projects that bring southern settler societies together into the global picture of 20th-century race science.
The scholarship is valued at $27,651 per annum (tax exempt) and may be renewed for up to three years, subject to satisfactory progress.
Eligibility–
Applicants should have a particular interest in the history of concepts of race and human difference. Knowledge of the history of science is desirable but not essential. Applications are open to Australian citizens, Australian permanent residents or New Zealand citizens. International students may apply, but need to contact Dr Rodney Taveira in the first instance.
