University-based social scientists spend considerable time each year applying for competitive research grants. It is a significant undertaking for universities and individuals. Taking an international comparative approach the project aims to offer original in-depth insight into how so-called ‘grantsmanship’ is undertaken, how it is learned and how it is experienced. It investigates how different policy and institutional contexts influence such work and how social scientists negotiate scientific and strategic exigencies in the process of proposal writing. Such analysis aims to enhance understanding of the contemporary mechanisms that shape social scientific practice and stimulate professional, political and public debate central to democratic well-being.

大学里的社会科学家每年都要花相当多的时间申请竞争性研究经费。这对大学和个人来说都是一项重大的任务。该项目采用国际比较的方法，旨在对所谓的“赠款”是如何进行的、如何学习的以及如何经历的提供独到的深入见解。它调查了不同的政策和制度背景如何影响这些工作，以及社会科学家如何在提案写作过程中谈判科学和战略紧急情况。这种分析旨在加强对当代机制的理解，这些机制塑造了社会科学实践，并激发了对民主福祉至关重要的专业、政治和公共辩论。
