Postdoc job: Innovation & Rentiership
APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTING <br> <br> Dear all, <br> <br> I’m looking to recruit a Postdoctoral Visitor/Fellow to work on a <br>SSHRC-funded research project titled “From Entrepreneurship to <br>Rentiership: The Changing Dynamics of Innovation in Technoscientific <br>Capitalism”. The project examines the different forms of rentiership <br>prevalent in contemporary, technoscientific capitalism. It is motivated by <br>the increasing unease expressed across the political spectrum with the <br>problematic effects emerging from technology monopolies, weak antitrust <br>regulations, market capture, platform technologies, intellectual property <br>rights, etc. <br> <br> These two open access articles provide the context for the research: <br> * Birch, K. (2019) Technoscience rent: Towards a theory of rentiership for <br>technoscientific capitalism <br>(https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0162243919829567), Science, <br>Technology and Human Values. <br> * Birch, K. (2017) Rethinking value in the bio-economy: Finance, <br>assetization and the management of value <br>(http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0162243916661633), Science, <br>Technology and Human Values 42(3): 460-490. <br> Terms & Conditions: the position is for 1-year, with the possibility of <br>renewal for another 6 months; and salary will start at CS41,000 (plus <br>benefits) depending on experience. <br> <br> If you’re interested in applying then please send me a 2-page maximum <br>cover letter (outlining how your experience matches the job description), <br>an up to date CV, and the names and email addresses of two referees. <br>Deadline: 31 October 2019. Email address: kean@yorku.ca <br>(mailto:kean@yorku.ca) <br> <br> Here’s the job description: <br>http://webapps.yorku.ca/academichiringviewer/specialads/Postdoctoral-Fellow-i <br>n-Innovation-Rentiership.pdf <br>(http://webapps.yorku.ca/academichiringviewer/specialads/Postdoctoral-Fellow- <br>in-Innovation-Rentiership.pdf) <br> <br> <br> Cheers <br> <br> Kean Birch <br>https://profiles.laps.yorku.ca/profiles/kean/ <br>(https://profiles.laps.yorku.ca/profiles/kean/) <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
