From: On Behalf Of Joanne Sharp
Research Reader/Chair and 2 postdoctoral researchers in Urban Geography
We are delighted to announce that the Human Geography Research Group (HGRG)
at the University of Glasgow has three research posts in urban geography: a
Research Reader/Chair (five years) and two postdoctoral research positions
(grade 6/7, two years). These posts are supported by the Urban Studies
Foundation and aim to enhance urban research in the HGRG.
We are looking for researchers who will contribute to, and develop, one or
more of our four existing research themes (Knowing, creativity and
experiment; Subaltern globalisations; Exploring vital geographies; and
Stressed environments and communities; for more information, see our
website: http://www.gla.ac.uk/schools/ges/research/humangeographyresearch/)
and to link across to other urban scholars across the University of Glasgow.
We particularly encourage applicants whose work is in the areas of urban
political economy; comparative and subaltern urbanisms;
alternative/progressive urbanisms; urban political ecologies; urban
sustainabilities and securities. We strongly encourage applications from
scholars who consider urban transformation in a global perspective, alert to
the Global South as well as the Global North. A readiness to engage and to
co-produce research in a public, participatory fashion with urban
communities will be desirable.
The closing date for applications is April 6th 2014
