[Commlist] Vacancy for Researchers @ JRC in Seville for project "Social Classes in the Digital Age"
Thu Oct 01 11:07:32 GMT 2020
The Seville site of the European Commission´s Joint Research Center is
going to host a new project on* Social Classes in the Digital Age *at
the Centre for Advanced Studies. The main goal of this project will be
to update the Social Sciences concept of Social Class to the new
economic realities of the Digital Age, operationalise it into a set of
analytical tools such as new class taxonomies, and apply them to
contemporary phenomena such as the decline of the middle class and job
polarisation, the effects of digital technologies on inequalities and
life chances or the emergence of new types of economic relations. This
project will be integrated in the Employment and Skills team of the
Human Capital and Employment Unit of the JRC (for more details on our
recent work, see https://ideas.repec.org/s/ipt/laedte.html
<https://ideas.repec.org/s/ipt/laedte.html> and
https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/facts4eufuture/changing-nature-work-skills-digital-age
<https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/facts4eufuture/changing-nature-work-skills-digital-age>),
and collaborate closely with other JRC projects and units, such as
HUMAINT (https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/communities/en/community/humaint
<https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/communities/en/community/humaint>) and the
Digital Economy and Knowledge for Growth units.
The JRC is recruiting three researchers to work on this new center from
the end of the year, with a full-time research contract of three years
renewable for a further three-year period. All of the positions are for
Social Scientists, though with slightly different profiles: a Labour
Economist, a Social Scientist and a Political Scientist/Political
Economist. You can find more details on the positions here:
