The 2010 Andrės Torres Paper Series Award

The 2010 Andrės Torres Paper Series Award

Call for Manuscript Proposals

Submission Deadline: August 15, 2010

The Mauricio Gastón Institute is pleased to announce the first call for proposals for the Andrés Torres Paper Series Award. The Institute will award a grant of $4,000.00 for the preparation of a scholarly manuscript focused on three themes of the Latino and Latina experience:

1. the connection between immigration and community formation

2. transnational linkages

3. inter-Latino relations and relations between Latino groups and other groups

We are seeking proposals from young scholars engaged in research relevant to these topics. Selection for this award is through a competitive process. A national committee of Latino scholars convened by the Gastón Institute will review all proposals and select one proposal for the 2010 Andrés Torres Paper Series Award.
