Applications are invited for research grants in the social sciences. The Horowitz Foundation normally approves five to six grants each year, in amounts ranging from $2,000-$5,000 per grant. The foundation makes targeted grants for work in the major areas of the social sciences: anthropology, area studies, economics, political science, psychology, sociology, and urban studies. Preference will be given to projects that deal with contemporary issues in the social sciences or issues of policy relevance, and to scholars in the initial stages of work. Applicants are not required to be U.S. citizens or U.S. residents. Candidates may propose new projects, and may also solicit support for research in progress, including final work on a dissertation, travel funds, or preparing a work for publication.<
Candidates should submit applications no later than December 31, 2002. Awards will be announced on or about May 1, 2003. Applicants are invited to request an application from:
