Two Postdoctoral Research Positions in Critical Feminist Phenomenology
University College Dublin
Applications are invited for two temporary postdoctoral positions at University College Dublin, Ireland, based within the UCD Sutherland School of Law. Fields related to these positions include philosophy, specifically phenomenology, gender studies, law, peace studies, war and conflict studies, and political science.
The positions are within an ERC Consolidator Grant led by Professor Aisling Swaine (Principal Investigator). The ‘GENCOERCTRL project’ is a 5-year transnational qualitative study focused on expanding empirical and theoretical understanding of women’s experiences of armed group violence, and specifically coercive control, and related responses by peacebuilding and transitional justice processes. To do so, it develops a critical feminist phenomenological methodology as the basis for the research design and methods.
The Postdoctoral fellows will be part of a team of researchers working under the guidance and supervision of the Principal Investigator.
The roles involve contributing to the development of theory, the methodological approach and tools for the study, and undertaking empirical ‘field’ research and data analysis using that methodology. Across the three years significant secondary data analysis will also be part of the role. The roles are based at UCD in Ireland, with travel for empirical research in one selected research site to be determined (e.g. Colombia, Sri Lanka or another as determined through the research design).
