Dear colleagues,
With pleasure do I announce the vacancy of this fascinating and fully-funded
PhD position on "Contested Epistemologies of Sustainability" at the Sociology
Department of the University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Led by Dr Catherine Wong and myself, in this project we examine how climate
change and the foundational ways of knowing are contested in two radically
different contexts: indigenous communities in South/Southeast Asia and
conspiratorial communities in Europe. Both communities challenge hegemonic
Western epistemologies of sustainability, albeit in their own specific
ways.
Your project will explore and compare both communities under this broad
umbrella of contested epistemologies, but with plenty of room for your own
ideas and innovation in who and what you would like to study. We are looking
for curious and creative ethnographers with a Masters degree or equivalent in
Sociology, Anthropology or Science & Technology Studies obtained before the
employment starting date (Sept/Oct 2024)
Please look at the full vacancy of this four-year long fully funded
position for more information, and
share with suitable candidates.
Kind Regards,
Jaron Harambam
