Postdoctoral researcher in Gender Studies (research on digital cultures)

Job

The Department of Gender Studies at Lund University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher within the framework of the research project Gender Struggles in the New Conjuncture. The project investigates a selection of anti-gender networks as well as feminist and LGBTQI+ networks in five European regions, aiming to capture the meanings of gender and sexuality in these actors’ tactics, political agendas, and social visions, as well as their impact on human rights, democracy, and civil society. The purpose of the central research project is to investigate how struggles over gender and sexuality shape contemporary political and social landscapes in Europe. The project examines both feminist and LGBTQI+ movements advocating for expanded rights, as well as hybrid alliances between anti-gender networks, religious fundamentalists, conservatives, and far-right movements opposing these advancements. The research project aims to contribute new knowledge about the emerging normative foundations of society in the wake of today’s divergent mobilizations. The project is led by Professor Mia Liinason. We are now seeking a postdoctoral researcher to conduct research within the project, both individually and in collaboration with the research group. The position requires prior experience with ethnographic fieldwork or digital network analysis, as well as advanced knowledge of language and sociopolitical contexts in Southern Europe.
