European Partnership for Qualitative Research Training (Social Anthropology)

Objective

This programme builds research training in anthropology by linking training in New Member and Associated states with western institutions. Anthropology is unevenly developed across Europe - Social Anthropology was not taught in central/eastern Europe unti l 1989 and research training at postgraduate level is recent and patchy. Today, ambitious Ph.D. candidates have to move out of the region to pursue their studies. This programme targets students from new members and accession states, as well as others wish ing to research in such countries. It will enable two intakes of Doctoral Fellows to move between three or more partner institutions in two, thirty month training programmes. Some short term mobility will also be available for other doctoral students in Eu rope. The training strengths and specialisations of the network will provide Fellows with a comprehensive understanding of the discipline. Training quality will be raised and a cohesive and closely knit network of European anthropologists will form, commit ted to researching and teaching in their countries but thinking in regional, continental and global terms. Fellows will be encouraged to engage in a critical rethinking of Anthropological methods and goals to help sustain the impact of the discipline into the 21st Century. The gap between pays réel and pays legal in post-communist states makes anthropological methods ideal for investigating local social process. Fellows will generate in-depth qualitative research that is properly conducted on issues of ethn ic relations, democratic public culture, conflict prevention, but also broader, non-region-specific topics like medical anthropology, science in society and cultural evolution. Special tracks in Visual Anthropology will be provided. Anthropology's concern for bringing local meaning and value into relation with global phenomena makes it well suited to fast-tracking the radical changes necessary for the reform of educational and research.
