Dear all,
Please distribute this announcement to PhD students with an interest in labour geography and related fields.
The Department of Sociology and Human Geography at the University of Oslo has announced a new PhD course “Rethinking labour agency in a globalized world of work” 23-27 May 2022, led by David Jordhus-Lier (University of Oslo) and Neil Coe (National University of Singapore), with guest lectures by Kendra Strauss (Simon Fraser University) and Andrew Warren (University of Wollongong).
Taking part in the full program requires physical attendance, but online arrangements can be made for students unable to travel to Oslo. Academic interventions from invited guest speakers will be done via a digital platform.
The course is open to all PhD students who are researching workers as an active constituent of the global economy. Although most suited to students working in the traditions of labour/economic geography, economic sociology, labour studies and industrial relations, applicants from all disciplinary backgrounds will be considered. Likewise, applications are welcome from across the globe, and from researchers looking at the politics of work in all and any form (e.g. informal work, reproductive work, gig work, migrant labour, modern slavery etc.). Applicants can apply at any stage of the PhD process, but may find it most rewarding if they have already conducted some of their own empirical research.
