Original announcement and information

The positions mainly involve research, but there may also be some teaching assignments (max. 20% of the time). Apart from persons who have completed their PhDs within the last three years, students who are near completion of their thesis are also encouraged to apply.
Deadline for submission of application documents: November 26, 2012.
Only online applications are accepted.
Pieces of advice:
- If the referees prefer to send their letters directly to us, please ask them to scan their reference/recommendation letters and to send them directly to: globaldevelopment@gu.se
- By a "job market paper" we mean a paper that you want to submit to show that you are the right person for the job. It can be a chapter/paper from your PhD thesis (defended or soon to be defended), an article published or accepted for publication in a journal or a paper that has not yet come that far in the process but that you believe is good enough for this purpose.
- Do not send your entire thesis!
- Other papers etc. that you have produced should be listed in a reference list.
