Subject: Doctoral Fellowships

CEBHEM / Orientalisches Seminar
Tuebingen University, Germany
invites applications for two doctoral research fellowships (3 years
each) to be held at the recently established ìCentre for the Economic
and Business History of the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East
(CEBHEM)î. Appointments will start from 01.10.2000. Remuneration will be
approx. DM 2.000 p.month net (plus generous travel and equipment
allowances).

Eligibility: ideal candidates would be outstanding graduates (minimum
requirement: M.A. to be awarded in Summer 2000) from the fields of
Middle Eastern and/or Mediterranean Studies, History, Anthropology,
Sociology, Geography or Economics, provided they have an interest in
archival research. Languages required: Arabic, Ottoman-Turkish, French,
Italian (for one position also Greek or Armenian).

Research will focus, technically, on archival studies in the region and,
conceptually, on processes of incorporation of the Eastern Mediterranean
and the Middle East in the world exchange during the 18th-early 20th
centuries, more specifically on "Incorporation, minorities and
diasporas" and "Entrepreneurs and the Ottoman state". Transdisciplinary
approaches in dealing with these topics are strongly encouraged. It is
recommended that supervision be conducted jointly by Orientalisches
Seminar and the candidate's home institution. Students may apply for
permission to write their thesis in a language other than German.

For further details concerning the application procedure have a look at
our http://www.uni-tuebingen.de/CEBHEM or write an e-mail directly to
CEBHEMís coordinator (ruediger.klein at uni-tuebingen.de). The complete
documentation must be received by 15.06.2000. In summer 2000 up to three
candidates for each of the positions will be invited for an interview.
The definitive decision will be communicated by 30.07.2000 at the
latest.
