Postdoc in public policy

6 days ago

København K, Denmark Københavns Universitet (KU) Full time

The Department of Food and Resource Economics (IFRO) at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for a fixed-term postdoc position (24 months) in the area of public policy. The position is expected to commence on November 1, 2024 or soon thereafter.

Job Description
The position is funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark under the project Explaining proportionality conflicts in public policy: when public health and veterinary policy domains intersect (PropZoon).

The project focuses on the concept of disproportionality in public policy when public health and veterinary policy domains intersect. Disproportionality manifests itself as either policy under-reaction or over-reaction. The project aims to explore and explain these phenomena through rigorous comparative research.

Using qualitative comparative analysis (QCA), the project will compare the degree of inter-institutional conflict over proportionality across 15-18 European zoonosis cases. The goal is to understand how various institutional factors influence the levels of conflict between public health and veterinary authorities. Findings from this research are expected to be published in high-impact policy journals and communicated to relevant stakeholders.

The research is led by professor Carsten Daugbjerg, University of Copenhagen and will collaborate with assistant professor Giulia Bazzan, Tilburg University.

Responsibilities

  • Conduct high-quality research within the scope of the PropZoon project.
  • Contribute to the dissemination of research findings through publications and presentations.
  • Participate actively in the international agri-food research community and contribute to the department's expertise in food regulation.
  • Collaborate with the research team and engage with stakeholders.

Qualifications

  • PhD degree in public policy, political science, or a related field.
  • Experience in applying public policy theory.
  • Experience with or willingness to learn QCA methodology.
  • Strong analytical skills in public policy.
  • Ability to write academic journal articles in English.
  • Effective oral presentation skills.

Desirable:

  • Publications in international journals in relevant research areas.
  • Experience with comparative public policy research.
  • Familiarity with food regulation and its policy implications.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
  • Strong organizational and project management skills.
  • Teaching experience at the university level
