About this opportunity

This new initiative is intended to provide funding for early career scholars, publishing in English, who are working on projects in legal history relating to non-U.S. history topics. Non-U.S. history topics refers to research that does not qualify for the fellowships awarded by the Cromwell Foundation in coordination with the ASLH. Early career scholars includes those researching or writing a PhD dissertation (or equivalent project) and recent recipients of a graduate degree working on their first major monograph or research project. The Committee will make up to five awards of $2,000 each to support research activities. Applications must make clear the relevance of law to the project and how the research will tell us something new about law. Applications should engage with relevant scholarship in the field and have a clear budget that is specific about how and where research funds will be spent. Awards will be formally announced at the Annual Meeting of the American Society for Legal History.
