Dear AFRIK-IT list:

interest.  Please find a short version of our Request for Proposals
following.
Thanks,
Deborah Matzner, Social Science Research Council

SSRC FELLOWSHIPS ON INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND
GLOBAL SECURITY

The Social Science Research Council is pleased to announce the availability
of new summer fellowships for innovative research on information technology
(IT), international cooperation and global security.  PhD students and
faculty from any academic discipline and of any nationality may apply. These
in-residence fellowships, for summer 2001, are designed for researchers who
currently work on cooperation and security issues and who want to explore
the role and impact of IT in this area; or for researchers who work on IT
and want to explore its relationship to cooperation and security.

International cooperation and global security involve a wide range of issues
including new forms of global regulation and surveillance; transboundary
advocacy and global civil society; economic and political "crisis" and
transformation; unequal access to goods and services; transnational identity
politics; conflict and transboundary intervention; military and warfare
practices; and power and authority in the global realm. IT issues could
involve the Internet and related technologies such as those associated with
telecommunications, data processing, encryption, and systems of code;
robotics, automation, and simulation; and concerns bearing directly on
connectivity and content such as structures of information flow and
processes of disinformation and dissemination.

Deadline: January 12, 2001 (mailed from inside U.S.) and January 22 (all
others)
