The Department of Media Studies seeks an Assistant Professor in critical archival studies. This position is focused on developing fair, inclusive, and socially just archival practices through a critical examination of archival methods, archival legacies, and archival institutions. Critical archival studies draws upon various traditions of critical thought and practice as well as the concept of sustainability to explore the complex dimensions of political, social, ecological, economic and cultural systems. This focus serves to emphasize interdisciplinary connections and comparisons while facilitating the development and adoption of inclusive methods that amplify marginalized voices. Traditional archival practices such as indexing, classification, and categorization are thus re-examined from a social justice perspective, with an emphasis on liberatory memory work, documenting victims’ perspectives, community archiving, and counter-archiving. There is also significant emphasis placed on utilizing digital techniques to create innovative forms of access.

- actively contributing to the development and improvement of the broader teaching programmes in the department;

actively contributing to the interdisciplinary collaboration of the sector plan research theme Cultural Heritage and Identity.
What do you have to offer?
You are a dynamic and ambitious researcher with a strong profile, demonstrable by international publications and an international academic network. Your publications show broad knowledge of critical archival studies. Your research matches the profile of AHM.
You are able to develop and provide modules on critical archival studies.
