The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Division of Research Programs, in collaboration with the Japan-United States Friendship Commission (JUSFC), is offering fellowships for advanced social science research on Japan. This grant aims to significantly promote Japan studies within the United States, foster robust scholarly exchange between the U.S. and Japan, and cultivate the next generation of Japan scholars. Awards support individual researchers conducting in-depth research and writing focused on modern Japanese society, political economy, Japan’s international relations, and U.S.-Japan relations. Applicants must possess advanced Japanese language skills, as their research will necessitate direct engagement with Japanese data, sources, documents, or onsite interviews. Projects can be conducted in Japan, the United States, or both, with options for comparative work in other nations.
