NIJ FY 07/08 ORE W.E.B. DuBois

NIJ is soliciting applications for funding research to advance knowledge regarding the confluence of crime, justice, and culture, particularly in diverse cultural contexts. Du Bois Fellows will focus on policy-relevant questions in a manner that reflects their saliency as an integral part of the American past, present, and, increasingly, the future. Topics of interest include immigration, crime, and victimization; transnational crime; trafficking in human beings; ethnographic studies; police-community relations; and courts, sentencing, and corrections.
