EH.N: ANN: Chandler International Visiting Fellowship at Harvard Business School

[Walter A. Friedman]

Fellowship Opportunity: The Alfred D. Chandler, Jr., International 
Visiting Scholar in Business History Program at Harvard Business 
School.

The Alfred D. Chandler, Jr., International Visiting Scholar in 
Business History Program invites established scholars in business 
history based outside the United States to spend a period of time in 
residence at Harvard Business School. The primary activities of the 
Chandler International Visiting Scholar will be to interact with 
faculty and researchers, present work at research seminars, and 
conduct business history research. The program will encourage 
research concerned to relate historical reality to underlying 
economic theories of business development. Recipients will be given a 
$7,000 stipend (payable at the end of their visit), office space, an 
email account, phone, computer, ID card, and access to the 
University's libraries and the HBS Intranet. The program requires a 
two-month minimum length of stay. Scholars may stay up to a maximum 
of six months. Applicants should indicate when, during the calendar 
year 2009, they would like to be in residence at the School. It is 
expected that the recipient will be actively engaged in the 
intellectual life of the business history group.

Applicants should send (by post or by email) a cover letter, CV, and 
a description of the research to be undertaken to the address below. 
Two letters of reference should be sent separately. All materials 
must arrive no later than September 30, 2008.
