practitioners engaged in work related to the moral dimensions of
international affairs. Junior scholars, mid-career professionals, and those

RESEARCH PROPOSAL AREAS

Fellowship proposals must show a clear linkage to one of the Carnegie
Council's ongoing research themes:

1) Human Rights
(http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/programs/callfellows.html#human rights) In
line with the goals of the Council's Human Rights Initiative
(http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/themes/humanrights.html), we are seeking
applicants in the field of human rights to carry out field-based research
that examines existing levels of public legitimacy for a specific human
rights concern and/or how to enhance public legitimacy for that concern.
Research projects may involve an examination of the development of local
norms -- in particular, how local norms are influenced by international
norms and the international human rights movement.

Applications from individuals based in non-Western and developing countries
are particularly encouraged. Applicants should be a national of, or have
long-term experience in, the country of research as well as local language
fluency.

2) Environmental Values
(http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/programs/callfellows.html#environment)

Fellowship applicants should address one of two potential areas:

environmental values and policy-making
international environmental justice
When devising proposals related to environmental values, applicants should
refer to the Council's project "Understanding Values: A Comparative Study of
Values in Environmental Policy Making in China, India, Japan and the United
States" (http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/themes/environment.html). In the
area of international environmental justice, the program is interested in
theoretical and empirical projects on the application of the concept of
international environmental justice and the expansion internationally of the
environmental justice movement.

3) The Future of Conflict Prevention
(http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/programs/callfellows.html#conflict)

Applicants should be scholars or practitioners involved in research or
analysis related to the field of international conflict prevention. Research
topics should demonstrate a familiarity with emerging literature and theory
on conflict prevention and should be focused on a particular region or
country that is in, or has experienced, deadly conflict in the last ten
years. Examples of potential project themes are:


A critical examination of existing strategies and tools of conflict
prevention, such as economic sanctions, Track II diplomacy, and/or targeted
development aid.
An exploration of new or emerging approaches to the prevention of deadly
conflict.
An analysis of the role of international actors in a deadly conflict.
A study of the relationship between local and international actors in
regions affected by conflict.
