The Institute for Human Sciences (Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen, IWM) in Vienna has established a new fellowship program in memory and honor of its founding Rector, Krzysztof Michalski who died in 2013:
The Krzysztof Michalski Junior Visiting Fellowships 2015 / 2016
Steven Lukes, Professor of Politics and Sociology at New York University, was awarded the Senior Visiting Fellowship for the academic year 2015/16.
His research examines how morals relate to politics, economics, law, and religion. Steven Lukes explores the nature and functioning of moral norms or ‘ordinary ethics’, and the distinctive contribution that a sociological-cum-anthropological approach can make to the study of this topic.
Post-doctoral researchers in the humanities and social sciences whose research relates to these topics and who would benefit from collaborating with Professor Lukes are invited to apply for one of the two Junior Visiting Fellowships. Junior Visiting Fellows will be invited to stay at the IWM for six to ten months between September 2015 and July 2016. They should ideally be from a different country or region and not already affiliated to the Senior Fellow’s own institution or ongoing research projects.
The Krzysztof Michalski Junior Visiting Fellows will receive a stipend of € 3.300,00 per month to cover all expenses during their stay in Vienna, including accommodation, research and travel costs as well as health insurance.
Please note the deadline for application: December 17, 2014
All information about this fellowship program such as eligibility, application procedure and other details can be found on the IWM’s website: www.iwm.at/fellowships/michalski
