NOTICE: The Institute for Legal Studies of the University of Wisconsin Law School Law & Society Post-doctoral Fellowship

Thanks to the Legal History Blog, I just heard about the following post-doctoral fellowship:

Law & Society Post-doctoral Fellowship
2012-13 Academic Year

Announcement Updated: April 4, 2011
Applications must be received by January 9, 2012

Eligibility: This fellowship is intended for early career social science and humanities scholars whose research contains a strong legal component and who plan to compete for a University teaching position in the U.S. market. Non-US citizens may apply, but must meet the stated criteria.

About the Fellowship: The Institute for Legal Studies of the University of Wisconsin Law School will appoint a post-doctoral fellow for the 2012-13 academic year. We invite applications from scholars who are in the early (pre-tenure) stage of their career or whose careers have been interrupted or delayed. Eligibility is limited to humanities or social science scholars who work in the law and society tradition, for example, anthropologists, economists, historians, political scientists, and sociologists. Advanced ABD graduate students may apply, but the PhD must be completed before beginning the fellowship. The stipend will be $25,000, plus a research allowance of $5,000 and benefits that include health insurance.
