Theory of science, not to be conflated with Philosophy of science, is a
Swedish branch of STS. A PhD position in Theory of science is now open at the
Department of Philosophy, Linguistics and Theory of science, University of
Gothenburg. It is part of a new graduate school hosted by the Centre for Sea &
Society at the same university. The topic is methods and practices for
synthesising research relevant to fisheries management. Those methods and
practices need to be understood in relation to the literature on what is
involved in adopting formalised procedures vs relying on non-formalised
professional competence in synthesising primary research. They also need to be
understood in relation to requirements that are specific to the science-policy
interface, as distinct from ordinary research practice.
We are looking for a candidate with a background in science and technology
studies, sociology, anthropology, or some other social science. Knowledge
about the science-policy interface in general, marine policy and research, or
systematic reviewing, is an asset.
Closing date for applications: 15 September.
