Postdoctoral Fellow (PDF) in Innovation & Rentiership

Apologies, this is rather late in the day. Deadline 31 October 2018.

I am recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow to work on a project titled “From Entrepreneurship to Rentiership? The Changing Dynamics of Innovation in Technoscientific Capitalism” funded by the Social Sciences & Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada.

It builds on my recent work on assetization and rentiership, see here for examples:

Below is a link to the job ad with details about the project, job description & responsibilities, job criteria, and application process (only need a CV and cover letter sent direct to me at [log in to unmask]).

Thanks,
