How to find a PhD Scholarship in USA?

Question

Hello everybody,

I am an international student studying in Europe, and I am now beginning to search for a fully-funded PhD position in economics in the USA.

I can see that searching for scholarships in the internet is not of much help becuase, unlike those from Europe, vacant PhD positions in the USA are not announced via the media. What do you think is the best way to get PhD funding, especially those targeted at developing country citizens? Do you think direct contact with possible-supervisors is the best way?

Thank you in advance for your responses.
