Linkping University, Tema T Technology and Social Change, Sweden
Travel and accommodation provided
Application deadline: 30 September 2024
Dear colleagues,
After a very successful first round of fellowships we would like to announce a
new call for visiting research fellows. We would like to give both junior and
senior researchers the opportunity to stay between two weeks and two months at
our department and engage with our vibrant interdisciplinary research
environment. We will provide an apartment as well as research infrastructure
(work place, IT, library) for this time and can cover the travel to and from
Linkping. Please find more information in the attached leaflet.
We are especially looking for researchers with a link to topics of urban and
regional climate transitions which is one of the research fields within Tema
T.
Examples of topics of interest are:
- the role of urban and regional planning in sustainability transitions;
new tools and approaches for strategic and transformative planning; new roles
for planners
- social transformation and the role of knowledge and politics
- the governance of socio-technical change; building capacities for
transformation
- the role of social movements, grassroots innovations or energy
communities
- new instruments and strategies for urban transformative change -
socio-technical experiments, system demonstrators, reflexive monitoring and
evaluation, mission-oriented innovation policies
- critical analysis of the politics of transition; conflict, controversy
and friction in transition processes; questions of justice, equality,
democracy and marginalisation in sustainability transitions
Your workplace will be at the Division of Technology and Social
Change at Linkping University.
Tema T is a nationally and internationally leading environment for research
and education in how people create and use technology, and how technological
change is interwoven with cultural patterns, everyday life, politics, ethics
and economy. The fellowship is coupled to the research group 'STRIPE -
Socio-technical research of infrastructures, politics and the environment.
If you are interested, please send us an email with your preferred period of
stay to fellowship.temat@liu.se and attach a
CV and expression of interest, including plans for your stay, of up to three
pages.
The application deadline for the coming calendar year 2025 is 30 September
- However, later applications are also accepted on a rolling basis pending
on the availability of funding.
We are looking forward to receiving your expressions of interest! Wed also be
grateful if you could pass this information on to other potentially interested
persons.
With best regards,
Harald Rohracher
