Leadership in transition? Inter-generational conflicts and social capital
in ethnic minority communities
An opportunity has arisen for a suitably-qualified person to conduct
research leading to a PhD into questions of leadership in ethnic minority
communities. The research will seek to address the impact of changing
patterns of leadership on conflict and cohesion within those communities,
and on the capacity of minority communities to access public institutions
and social resources. The fieldwork will be conducted in Manchester and
Stoke-on-Trent.
The project will be supervised by Dr. Ian Loader (Criminology) and Profs.
Chris Phillipson and Pnina Werbner (Social Relations), in collaboration
with the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister. The studentship will be
full-time for 3 years from September 2002 and be paid at a starting
stipend of £8,300 p.a., plus research expenses. University fees will be
met in full.
