[STS-Africa] 4 positions on ERC-project 'Doing Digital Identities'

[Stephan Scheel]

Dear colleagues,

I am happy to announce that the ERC-funded project /DigID – Doing 
Digital Identities/ is looking for 2 PhD-students and 2 postdoctoral 
researchers to join the project team.

The PhD-positions are for a period of four years and the two Post-doc 
positions for a period of three years each. The expected starting date 
for all positions is 1^st September 2023 and the deadline for 
applications 10^th of April.

All positions are part of the ERC-funded project “DigID – Doing Digital 
Identities” which is based at the /Centre for Digital Cultures/ at the 
Leuphana University of Lüneburg in Northern Germany. In a nutshell, the 
project investigates how the move from paper-based towards digital 
methods of identification reconfigures citizen-state relations. In 
conceptual terms, the project is situated at the intersection of 
citizenship studies, critical data studies and STS. More information 
about the project can be found under the following link as well as in 
the job advertisements below:

I would be grateful if you could advertise the job offers widely within 
your networks and also forward them to interested candidates. Since 
DigID is an explicitly interdisciplinary research project, applications 
from all disciplines of the social sciences as well as project-related 
fields of study (anthropology, STS, critical data studies, critical 
geography etc.) are welcome.
