in an ▸ERC project about the ▸social dynamics of projecting possible futures.

The position is fully funded (up to 2 years).
 
Suitable candidates should hold (or be close to completion of) a PhD in Communication, Middle Eastern Studies, International Relations, or related fields. Background in research on Syria and experience in text analysis are an advantage.
