The Danish Centre for Welfare Studies (DaWS), University of Southern Denmark, Odense, seeks to appoint a Postdoctoral Fellow (100%) as part of the Horizon Europe project PROTEMO – a 3-year (2024-2026) interdisciplinary research project that investigates the emotional roots of protective policies and their emotional consequences for individuals, groups of citizens and non-citizens as well as for democracy, political participation, and mobilization. See more about the project here. Local PI and work package leader is Peter Starke (Professor mso at the Department of Political Science and Public Management, University of Southern Denmark). The starting date for the position is 1 August 2024. The position is available for a fixed term of 12 months and comes with a competitive, full-time salary.

Using appropriate qualitative methods (e.g. elite interviews and document analysis), the successful applicant will study the role of emotions in policies aimed at disadvantaged housing areas in Denmark (“udsatte boligområder”). Together with the PI, the postdoctoral fellow will engage in innovative research focusing especially 1) on how to conceptualize and operationalize empathy as a concept to be used in policy studies, and 2) on empirical research on the role of empathy in policymaking in the areas of, inter alia, social welfare and criminal justice.
