PhD-Position in Gender Studies: Gender Struggles in the New Conjuncture

Job
The aim of the overarching research project is to examine how struggles over gender and sexuality shape contemporary political and social landscapes in Europe. The project investigates both feminist and LGBTQI+ movements struggling for expanded rights and anti-gender movements opposing these advancements. By analyzing their tactics, agendas, and social visions, the project seeks to understand how these opposing forces reshape democratic values, human rights, and civil society. Ultimately, the research will provide new insight into the emergence of new normative foundations for society in the wake of today’s divergent mobilizations. We are now inviting applications for one position as PhD-student, appointed to conduct research within the project, individually as well as in collaboration with the research team. We seek to recruit a PhD-student with a motivation to conduct high quality research and with previous knowledge of ethnographic fieldwork or digital network analysis, and advanced knowledge of the languages and socio-political contexts of Western or Southern Europe.
