[ecrea] IIPC Visiting fellow call 2014

Spend your sabbatical in Finland as IIPC visiting fellow!

The International Institute for Popular Culture (IIPC) is a 
multi-disciplinary research unit concerned with promoting cutting-edge 
research on contemporary popular culture. We aim not only to chart and 
explain emerging cultural forms but also to investigate the history and 
transformations of popular culture. The Institute is committed to 
pursuing academic excellence, and to promoting ambitious, high-quality 
research while facilitating international scholarly exchange and 
collaborative publications.

The IIPC Visiting Fellow will receive travel costs to and from Turku, 
Finland, accommodation during the stay, and office space to work in. We 
will not pay your salary or other living expenses. We are looking for 
outstanding scholars with a research interest in popular culture to stay 
with us for one month. We require the fellow to give an IIPC Debate 
lecture (see http://iipcblog.wordpress.com/iipc-debates/) at the 
beginning and the end of the stay, and to run a weekly IIPC Research 
Seminar. The first possibility to arrive is in the autumn 2014. The 
minimum requirement for visiting fellows is a PhD degree in a germane 
area of research on popular culture.

Deadline:
May 16, 2014, we advise those planning to join us in Autumn 2014 to 
contact us as soon as possible.
