Hosted by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) at the University of Edinburgh, this fellowship supports postdoctoral scholars whose research engages meaningfully with Stuart Hall’s work through theory, method or topic. Projects need not focus exclusively on Hall. Innovative and interdisciplinary approaches are encouraged across the arts, humanities and social sciences.
The fellowship connects researchers with RACE.ED, Edinburgh’s multidisciplinary network concerned with race, racialization and decolonial studies, and the Stuart Hall Foundation’s commitment to public education and addressing race and inequality. It provides time for thinking, reading and writing within a scholarly community, alongside mentoring and work-in-progress seminars. Fellows also contribute to RACE.ED activities and can engage with the Foundation’s resources and networks to develop their research profiles and careers.
