Dear colleagues,
<br>
<br>We are delighted to announce two social science vacancies at the Laboratoire
<br>Interdisciplinaire Sciences Innovations Sociétés (LISIS) in Paris, France.
<br>The doctoral and postdoctoral positions are in the area of transitions studies
<br>and focussed on the destabilisation and phase out of socio-technical systems.
<br>
<br>Applications for both positions will be received until 22 March 2020, for an
<br>expected start on 1 September 2020.
<br>
<br>***************
<br>The funded PhD position is for 36 months. The PhD student will focus on the
<br>sources and mechanisms of destabilisation of existing socio-technical systems
<br>in particular regional contexts. The research will mainly rely on a
<br>qualitative longitudinal case study strategy, but also explore opportunities
<br>for regional transformation strategies. The empirical focus of the PhD project
<br>will be on historical and contemporary socio-technical dynamics at play in one
<br>of the following sectors:
<br>naval industries and/or port cities in different European regions
<br>meat production and consumption in different European countries
<br>cross-border passenger travel in Europe (long-distance rail and flight).

<br>The postdoc position is for 18 months. The successful candidate will focus on
<br>the sources and mechanisms of destabilisation of existing socio-technical
<br>systems in particular regional contexts. The research will rely on qualitative
<br>longitudinal case studies, case comparisons, and pathway analysis. The

<br>socio-technical dynamics at play in one of the following sectors:
<br>naval industries and/or port cities in different European regions
<br>meat production and consumption in different European countries
<br>conversion of former coal-mining areas in different European regions
<br>cross-border passenger travel in Europe (long-distance rail and flight).
