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

The postdoc position is for 18 months. The successful candidate will focus on
the sources and mechanisms of destabilisation of existing socio-technical
systems in particular regional contexts. The research will rely on qualitative
longitudinal case studies, case comparisons, and pathway analysis. The
empirical focus of the postdoc project will be on historical and contemporary
socio-technical dynamics at play in one of the following sectors:
naval industries and/or port cities in different European regions
meat production and consumption in different European countries
conversion of former coal-mining areas in different European regions
cross-border passenger travel in Europe (long-distance rail and flight).
