Postdoctoral Researcher in Political Polarization

4 weeks ago


Århus, Århus Kommune, Denmark Aarhus University Full time
Job Description

The Department of Political Science at Aarhus University invites applications for two 2-3 year full-time postdoctoral positions to join a new research project on political polarization among citizens. The project is directed by Associate Professor Troels Bøggild.

The research project, PEERPOL, explores how political polarization emerges and spreads through peer-to-peer communication between citizens. The project develops a theoretical framework for understanding when and why citizens contribute to affective and ideological polarization through selection into social networks, biased information sharing, and interactions with in- and outgroup members.

The postdoctoral researcher will be employed as part of the PEERPOL project team and is expected to engage in collaborative research with Associate Professor Troels Bøggild and other project team members. We expect the postdoc to take a leading role in developing, designing, and coordinating studies in one or more countries within the project, to conduct high-quality research within the context of the PEERPOL project, and to contribute to publications in top outlets.

The project offers significant funding for data collection, research assistants, travel, and workshops. The successful applicant will be part of a cutting-edge research project and a vibrant, supportive research team with an informal atmosphere. There will be excellent opportunities for intellectual development and mentoring, as well as developing an independent research agenda within the context of the project.

In addition to the outlined research tasks, the position implies modest teaching obligations equivalent to one course per year. If an applicant is interested, a one-year further extension in return for additional teaching might be negotiable, depending on the applicant's prior teaching experience and the department's need for teaching capacity.
