DESCRIPTION:The Abdallah S. Kamel Center for the Study of Islamic Law and Civilization at the Yale Law School invites applications for its 2024-2025 residency research fellowships. While the directors entertain applications from mid-career scholars working on specific writing projects\, the fellowships are primarily designed to bring promising junior scholars to the Law School in order to advance their academic research relating to Islamic law and civilization and to contribute to the intellectual life of the Law School and Yale University more broadly. \nThe Abdallah S. Kamel Center is seeking scholars from diverse backgrounds and academic disciplines who have completed or are near completion of an advanced degree (e.g.\, Ph.D.\, J.S.D.\, D.Phil.) and whose work engages with the intellectual and social history of Islam\, Islamic legal and political theory\, or law in contemporary Muslim societies. Scholars working or studying abroad are welcome to apply. The one-year residence research fellowships carry a stipend in the range of USD $50\,000 to $65\,000 commensurate with education and experience. \nWhile fellows will devote the majority of their time to individual research\, they are expected to participate in all the activities of the Abdallah S. Kamel Center\, help in the administration of these activities\, and to the extent possible avail themselves of the Law School’s various workshops and course offerings. Fellows will be expected to be present at the law school when classes are in session\, which is from late August through mid-December 2024 and from mid-January until early May 2025. Support is available for fellows relocating to New Haven from abroad and the offer is contingent upon the ability of non-US citizens to obtain the necessary (J) visa. \nTo apply\, please submit the following materials by email to kamel.center@yale.edu by January 31\, 2024: \n\nA statement of interest (of no more than 1000 words) describing the applicant’s relevant experience\, interest in the Kamel Center\, and proposed research for the duration of the fellowship;\na current resume or CV;\nrelevant law school or graduate school transcripts; and\ntwo letters of recommendation to be sent by the recommenders directly to kamel.center@yale.edu.\nPlease also note that non-native speakers of English must provide proof of proficiency (e.g.\, a recent TOEFL score of over 100 or an advanced degree from an English-speaking university).\n\nFor any questions about the application process\, please contact bradley.hayes@yale.edu. \nDecisions will be made by March 1\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Postdoctoral opportunity in History of Islam/Arabic Studies\, Leiden University\, February 2024-2027
DESCRIPTION:Scholars have long recognized that although Shiʿi claims emerged early in Islamic history\, Imami Shiʿism took a couple of centuries to crystallise. Scholarship on Shiʿism has tended to focus on doctrine\, but hitherto there has been little research into the institutions and social networks of early Imami Shiʿism. The project aims to propose the first rigorously historical model for how\, when and why a distinctive Imami Shiʿi Imamate emerged and developed as an institution. The ImBod project will frame the Imamate as a set of social interactions between the Imams\, and the community who venerated them\, within the broader networks of the early Islamic empire. Members of the ImBod project team will be assigned particular thematic spheres in order to identify and study the networks\, actors\, institutions\, spaces\, objects and processes through which the Imamate was mediated and performed within the Imami Shiʿi community and beyond. \nFor eligibility criteria and application details\, see here.

SUMMARY:Fellowship: UCHV Fellows in Law and Normative Thinking for Academic Year 2024-25\, Princeton University\, February 2\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:UCHV Fellows in Law and Normative Thinking for Academic Year 2024-25\nThe University Center for Human Values invites practitioners\, faculty members of any discipline\, independent scholars\, and lawyers to apply for visiting residential fellowships for 2024-25. Scholars are expected to reside in or around Princeton or demonstrate to the program’s satisfaction the ability to be on campus daily. The fellowship typically extends from September 1 to June 1. The Princeton University rank is Visiting Research Scholar. Fellows are paid monthly in nine equal installments. \nFellows will devote the full academic year to research\, discussion\, and scholarly collaboration on topics related to law and normative inquiry. Under exceptional circumstances\, fellowships for one semester may be considered.  Scholars will participate in a seminar for Law-Engaged Graduate Students (which involves some mentoring of JD/PhD students) and in activities organized by Law@Princeton. \nApplicants must have a doctorate\, juris doctor\, or an equivalent professional degree at the time of submission. \nThe selection committee looks closely at the research proposal. Successful applicants should demonstrate substantial expertise in law-related matters\, but in explaining research projects\, applicants should write for an audience of academic generalists (not necessarily lawyers). The selection committee will evaluate applicants on: the quality of their achievements in their field of specialization and their ability to benefit from the activities of the program; the quality and significance of their proposed research projects and writing sample; the contributions they are likely to make in the future to legal scholarship and practice and their ability to contribute to legal studies at Princeton. The program seeks to appoint scholars with mutual synergies and a balance between senior and junior scholars\, domestic and international scholars\, and those based in law schools or in the practice of law and those who are home are in other disciplines. \nHow to apply\nCandidates must submit an online application. \nRequired materials:\n\nA cover letter explaining your intellectual trajectory and suitability for the fellowship\nA CV\nA research statement of maximum 1\,000 words for a project to be pursued in the course of the fellowship\nA writing sample consisting of a single article or chapter (published or unpublished)\nContact information for two referees\n\nThe deadline for submission is February 2\, 2024\, 11:59 p.m. EST. Letters of reference should be submitted by the priority deadline of February 9\, 2024\, 11:59 p.m. EST. The anticipated start date is on or about September 1\, 2024\, with some limited flexibility. \nThe work location for this position is in-person on campus at Princeton University. \nFor more about UCHV\, see https://uchv.princeton.edu/. \nFor more about PLANT\, see uchv.princeton.edu/academic-programs/… . \nAnd for more about an umbrella program called Law@Princeton that hosts several different legal initiatives\, see https://law.princeton.edu/
