Applicants must be post-PhD and pre-tenure, and must have a complete book manuscript ready for circulation and discussion by August 1, 2015. Only first book projects will be considered. Each manuscript will be discussed in depth by at least two senior colleagues. The goal of the discussion is to prepare the manuscript for submission to an appropriate press. Research can focus on any aspect of the contemporary politics of the broader Middle East.
