Introduction: The Russell Sage Foundation's program on Race, Ethnicity, and Immigration supports innovative investigator-initiated research that examines the roles of race, ethnicity, nativity, legal status-and their interactions with each other and other social categories-in the social, economic, and political outcomes for immigrants, U.S.-born racial and ethnic minorities, and native-born whites.

General Description: This call encourages multi-disciplinary perspectives and methods that strengthen the data, theory, and methods of social science research. It aims to improve our understanding of how to foster the ideals of a pluralist society. Proposals may focus on any one or more of the issues-race, ethnicity, and/or immigration. RSF prioritizes analyses that make use of newly available data or demonstrate novel uses of existing data. The foundation supports original data collection when a project is focused on important program priorities, including survey or field experiments and qualitative studies.

Objectives:

• Examine the impact of race, ethnicity, and immigration on social, economic, and political outcomes.
• Foster interdisciplinary collaboration and methodological variety.
• Enhance understanding of how to promote a pluralist society.

Projects about analyses that make use of newly available data or demonstrate novel uses of existing data. We also support original data collection, such as field experiments, in-depth qualitative interviews, and ethnographies. RSF encourages methodological variety and inter-disciplinary collaboration. All proposals must have well-developed conceptual frameworks and research designs. Analytical models must be specified, and research questions and hypotheses (where applicable) must be clearly stated.

Funds can support research assistance, data acquisition, data analysis, and investigator time.
