vacancy postdoc blockchain and the transformation of food governance at Wageningen University
Job announcement: Postdoc position at Wageningen University, The Netherlands <br>Blockchain technology and the digital transformation of food governance <br> <br>We invite applications for a 3-year research project that investigates how <br>blockchain: <br> <br>(1) enables alternative schemes for governing sustainable and safe food supply <br>chains and <br>(2) challenges and transforms EU food governance. <br> <br>From a sociological perspective, the project examines the automation and <br>privatisation of governance practices implied in alternative schemes, many of <br>which are in the development pipeline. From a legal perspective, the project <br>analyses where blockchain could be used to implement EU food law or by private <br>actors to make food-related sustainability claims and what other legal <br>requirements apply (e.g. data protection, competition law). From a <br>transdisciplinary angle, the project will evaluate how the use of blockchain <br>reconfigures accountability and relations of trust, takes away enforcement <br>responsibility from Member States and enables fully autonomous private <br>regulatory regimes. <br> <br> -PhD in a social science discipline that is relevant to the topic <br> -Position for 3 years <br> <br>For more information please contact Prof. Josephine van Zeben <br>(Josephine.vanzeben@wur.nl) or Prof. Simon <br>Bush (Simon.Bush@wur.nl) . <br> <br>The position is part of a larger call for 15-postdocs of Wageningen <br>University's Social Sciences department.
