Lund University was founded in 1666 and is repeatedly ranked among the world's top 100 universities. The University has 42 000 students and 7 400 staff based in Lund, Helsingborg and Malmö. We are united in our efforts to understand, explain and improve our world and the human condition.

The Faculty of Social Sciences at Lund University is one of the leading education and research institutions in Sweden and operates both in Lund and Helsingborg.

The Department of Political Science fuses traditional roots with cutting-edge research and education. In recent years, it has very successfully competed for external research funds. Among the central research areas of the Department are democratization, diplomacy, peace and conflict studies, environmental politics and welfare studies. The strong research profile of the Department is reflected in the teaching, the educational environment also being firmly set in a global context.



This position as researcher is associated with the research program State-Making and the Origins of Global Order in the Long Nineteenth Century and Beyond (STANCE), led by Professor Jan Teorell at the Department of Political Science in Lund, and funded by Riksbankens Jubileumsfond (www.

stanceatlund.org). The project started in 2015 and will end in 2020. Overall, the project aims to bridge the gaps between comparative politics and IR, and between the study of political thought and positive empirical political science. Three overall research themes build the core of this research program: (1) How did the different dimensions of state-making, including internal and external sovereignty, revenue extraction, professionalization of the bureaucracy and the development of infrastructural capacity, evolve and interact during this time period? What actors and organized interests supported or put up resistance to these processes? (2) How were these dimensions of state-making affected by geopolitical competition, warfare and the diffusion of novel political technologies? (3) What were the consequences for the international system, both with respect to the type of state that emerged and what entities were granted membership in the state system?

The holder of this position will be expected to continue and develop earlier conducted research within the STANCE project, especially in the field of IR and international security.

Qualifications

Research skills and academic promise will be the main selection criteria, but teaching skills will also be considered. Proficiency in spoken and written English is a requirement. The ability to conduct research independently and the capacity to contribute to the research program are very important considerations. Previous experience of working within the STANCE project is a requirement.
