ESRC Visiting Fellowships for the Middle East and South Asia for
2008/2009 . I would be grateful if you could circulate this message
to anyone you think may be interested in this scheme.

The British Academy (BA), the Arts and Humanities Research Council
(AHRC) and the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) are
pleased to invite applications under the third round of their
Visiting Fellowships scheme for South Asia and the Middle East.

The Scheme aims to attract early career researchers in any branch of
the humanities or social sciences to collaborate on research and
develop ideas likely to lead to a joint research proposal in the near
future.

Researchers, in conjunction with a UK host academic, can apply to
spend two to six months undertaking a clearly specified research
project in the United Kingdom.

Applications should be submitted to the British Academy no later than
12th January 2009
