Postdoc Opportunity | East Asian Studies, Slavic Studies and the Problem of Crisis

Application Deadline Extended:
May 1, 2021
The Center for Historical Research, the Center for Slavic and East European Studies and the East Asian Studies Center — with the College of Arts and Sciences at The Ohio State University — seek a postdoctoral fellow for 2021-2022.
The three centers above invite applications for a one-year postdoctoral fellowship. They seek an emerging scholar with proven interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary interests in East Asian and Slavic/East European Studies whose work connects to the Center for Historical Research’s theme of “Crisis, Uncertainty, and History: Trajectories and Experiences of Accelerated Change.” The Center for Historical Research will spend 2021-23 reevaluating the past as well as the future in light of the current moment of crisis and of other crisis points in global humanities, and the 2021-22 Slavic and East Asian post-doctoral scholar will contribute to these conversations.
While the specific topical focus and geographic areas are open, the successful candidate must be able to work in both geographic regions and connect to the larger theme of “Crisis, Uncertainty, and History.”
This fellowship is funded by the Global Arts + Humanities Discovery Theme
