Hudson Institute--Herman Kahn Fellowships

The Hudson Institute announces the 1998-1999 Herman Kahn Resident
Fellowship Program. The fellowships are designed to support Ph.D.
candidates who have completed their coursework and have only their
dissertation remaining. All candidates must have completed their 
coursework within the last five years and provide evidence that they
have been formally admitted to candidacy for a Ph.D. Fellows will be 
able to work on their doctorate 50 percent of the time with the 
remainder devoted to policy-oriented research projects assigned by 
the Hudson Institute. Fellows will receive public policy research
assignments in the following fields: national security,
domestic/international education, political economy, and political
institutions/theory.

Fellowship Areas:

1) Fellowship in Education: This fellowship will support policy-
   relevant research in education. The primary requisite is an
   interest in educational policy, particularly proposals for
   fundamentally restructuring the American system of education.

2) Fellowship in Domestic Political Economy: This fellowship
   involves research intended to enhance the policy analytic 
   framework for assessing national and regional economic issues.
   Topics of interest should relate to economic growth and change.

3) Fellowship in International Political Economy: This fellowship
   will support a policy-oriented research dissertation in the 
   area of international political economy. The primary criterion
   is that the dissertation topic be an issue of policy interest.

4) Fellowship in Political Theory and Institutions: This 
   fellowship is intended to support work on fundamental issues of
   political philosophy, the principles underlying the American 
   polity, or basic questions concerning Congress, the Presidency
   and the courts.
