Subject: FWD: 1998 Mullins Award Competition....
>The 1998 NICHOLAS MULLINS AWARD of The Society for Social Studies
of
>Science
>
>The Nicholas Mullins Award is awarded each year by the Society for
>Social Studies of Science (4S) for an outstanding piece of
>scholarship by a graduate student in the general field of Science
and
>Technology Studies. The prize, consisting of a cheque of 500 U$ and
a
>certificate and travel money for the 1998 annual meeting will be
>awarded for the eighth time.
>
>The competition is for graduate student papers, which must be
>submitted in English, based on all types of scholarly products in
the
>field of science and technology studies: unpublished papers,
>published articles, dissertation chapters. It is recommended that
>dissertation chapters be adapted so as to make them
"stand-alone."
>The work may not be older than two years at the time of submission.
>The intended readership for the papers is a general STS audience,
>rather than a specialized disciplinary readership. A graduate
student
>can only make one submission a year.
>
>The length of a paper should not exceed 10,000 words -- including
>notes and references. According to the rules, longer papers will be
>"punished" in the evaluation procedure, i.e., they do not
have to be
>read in their totality. They should be typed double-spaced. Six (6)
>copies should be sent to the chair of the Nicholas Mullins Award
Jury
>(see address below), but for students for whom this would be a
>financial hardship two (2) copies would be acceptable.
>
>The name and address of the author, the name and address of the
>author's institution should be on a separate sheet, so that these
can
>be detached from the distributed copies.
>
>Deadline for submitting contributions is May 15, 1998. Papers
>received after that date will be considered for next year's
contest.
>
>The evaluation is executed blindly by a jury of STS scholars. The
>winner will be announced at the Banquet at the Annual Meeting of
the
>4S. Winners are expected to attend the Annual Meeting of the 4S.
>
>For further information, please contact the chair of the jury:
