Overview
The Kluge Center, the hub of scholarship in the humanities and social sciences at the Library of Congress, will use this two-year grant to fund a Chair in Congressional Policymaking. The two scholars selected will be in residence at the center for three to four months each, one in 2019 and a second in 2020. Given its experience connecting scholarship with Congress, the center is the appropriate setting for this in-residence program. The fellows will conduct research on legislative negotiations using the Library’s collections and will be expected to disseminate their findings to Congress through publications and an event; in addition, the program will support efforts to train senior congressional staff in legislative negotiations.

The Kluge Center, the hub of scholarship in the humanities and social sciences at the Library of Congress, will use this two-year grant to fund two fellowships to study national governing institutions.

Given its experience connecting scholarship with Congress, the center is the appropriate setting for this in-residence program. The Kluge Center also will continue to engage with the emerging scholars and diverse perspectives programs at American University, further strengthening the network of scholars studying national governing institutions. The fellows will conduct research on Congress and the executive branch using the Library’s collections and will be expected to disseminate their findings through publications and events.
