Research
Fellowship in the field of European Administrative History
"JEV-Fellowship
for European Administrative History"
At the end of
2012 Prof. Dr. Erk Volkmar Heyen, who served as Professor of Public Law and
European Administrative History at the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt University of
Greifswald until his retirement and as editor of the “Jahrbuch für europäische
Verwaltungsgeschichte/Yearbook of European Administrative History” (JEV), which
ran from 1989 to 2008, endowed a research fellowship in the field of European
Administrative History ("The JEV-Fellowship for European Administrative
History"). The fellowship falls within the framework of the German University
Foundation (Bonn, Germany).
The scholarship
is intended to benefit the next generation of scientific researchers,
particularly doctoral and post-doctoral students, and exclusively to complete
their research project in as brief a period as possible to a maximum of 12
months. The scholarship is based on the usual rates for doctoral fellowships of
the German Research Foundation (DFG). Should a fellowship be awarded to a
researcher outside Germany, local scholarship rates will be taken into
consideration. Marital status will not be taken into account, nor will travel
or overhead costs be reimbursed.
The Board of the
German University Foundation awards the fellowship based on the recommendation
of a jury, which is based at the Max Planck Institute for European Legal History
(MPI) in Frankfurt.
Early stage researchers from Germany and
abroad are invited to apply. In accordance with the thematic and methodological
spectrum covered by the JEV, the scholarship is open to all historical
disciplines, provided the research project addresses an aspect of European
administrative history from the sixteenth to the twentieth century. The
relevance of the research topic should not be restricted to a particular
national context. Comparative research questions are particularly welcome.
First time
applications for a scholarship commencing in January 2019 can be submitted
until 30 September 2018. Applications in English or German should be sent in
electronic form to: Priv.- Doz. Dr. Peter Collin, collin@rg.mpg.de. The
application, which must also indicate the intended duration of the fellowship,
should include: a tabular CV with details on the nature and course university
education with copies of examination results and diplomas to be enclosed, a
list of scientific publications, where applicable; a detailed description of
the research project including a detailed outline, a detailed report on the
current state of the project and writing progress, including the reasons for
any delay in its completion; extensive excerpts from the manuscript;
information on the project’s previous, current and planned financing
arrangements; a precise timetable to complete the manuscript within the
duration of the fellowship. Furthermore, at least one expert opinion on the
research project and a personal reference from a university lecturer are to be
submitted directly to the jury.
The MPI provides
fellowship recipients with the opportunity to work in its library. Fellows are
given the opportunity to present and discuss their research projects with
members of the Institute. Upon expiration of the fellowship, the recipient is
to submit a report on the status of the manuscript. The MPI provides for the
publication of the manuscript in one of its book series, assuming it meets
internal and scientific standards. The book is to acknowledge the support
provided by the “JEV-Fellowship for European Administrative History” in the
masthead or in the preface.
