The National Science Foundation’s Law and Social Science Program is offering this grant to support rigorous social scientific studies of law and law-like systems, encompassing rules, institutions, processes, and behaviors. This grant is specifically for advancing a scientific understanding of law and legal processes, including research designed to enhance knowledge of law’s societal impact, human behavior related to law, dynamics of legal decision-making, and the evolution of legal institutions. The program maintains an open window for diverse theoretical perspectives, methods, and contexts, actively encouraging proposals that explore growing interdependence and interconnections of the world, extending beyond single nations. Standard, planning, travel, and doctoral dissertation improvement proposals are welcome to foster fundamental advancements in this field.

Description: | The Law and Social Science Program at the National Science Foundation supports social scientific studies of law and law-like systems of rules, institutions, processes, and behaviors. These can include, but are not limited to, research designed to enhance the scientific understanding of the impact of law; human behavior and interactions as these relate to law; the dynamics of legal decision making; and the nature, sources, and consequences of variations and changes in legal institutions. The primary consideration is that the research shows promise of advancing a scientific understanding of law and legal process. Within this framework, the Program has an "open window" for diverse theoretical perspectives, methods and contexts for study. For example, research on social control, crime causation, violence, victimization, legal and social change, patterns of discretion, procedural justice, compliance and deterrence, and regulatory enforcement are among the many areas that have recently received program support. In addition to standard proposals, planning grant proposals, travel support requests to lay the foundation for research, and proposals for improving doctoral dissertation research are welcome.The Law and Social Science Program continues to solicit proposals that take account of the growing interdependence and interconnections of the world. Thus proposals are welcome that advance fundamental knowledge about legal interactions, processes, relations, and diffusions that extend beyond any single nation as well as about how local and national legal institutions, systems, and cultures affect or are affected by transnational or international phenomena. Thus, proposals may locate the research within a single nation or between or across legal systems or regimes.The review process for the Law and Social Science Program is approximately six months. It includes appraisal of proposals by ad hoc reviewers selected for their expertise from throughout the social scientific community and by an advisory panel that meets twice a year. The target dates for the submission of proposals are January 15 for proposals to be funded as early as July and August 15 for proposals to be funded in or after January.Besides information on the Law and Social Science Program, please also visit the Cross-Directorate Activities program web site.
