[Commlist] Postdoctoral Research Fellow: Public connection in the age of datafication (4 years, ERC-funded)

Mon Nov 21 20:18:03 GMT 2022




Bergen Media Use Research Group (Norway) is looking for an ambitious scholar who wants to help develop a new agenda for researching citizens’ relations to the public sphere. The postdoc will form part of the team for the project “Distributed and prepared. A new theory of citizens’ public connection networks in the age of datafication” (PREPARE), funded by The European Research Council (ERC) and led by professor Hallvard Moe. The position is for four years with full time research.

PREPARE analyzes the impact of algorithmic media and datafied everyday life on citizens’ potential for political engagement. The project will stake out a new path for research on citizens’ role in democracies and develop a normative theory of citizens’ orientations to the sphere of politics. PREPARE’s research questions concern how people stay prepared to engage with public issues, and what resources they need to engage. The aim is to substantiate the new theory through qualitative ethnographies integrated with digital methods, of groups of so-called disconnected citizens. The postdoctoral research fellow will undertake fieldwork with qualitative and digital methods to understand how a group of citizens connects to the public.
