**1 Postdoc Position (0,8 fte, 30 months): ‘Human Development and Its Outliers’**

**Project description**:
This project envisions a broad evaluation of 20th century models of human development over the life course (ontogenesis, human constitution), including socialist and capitalist conceptions across both Eastern and Western Europe. It asks how these models of human life course were developed, including what stages of development are defined, and what ‘proper’ paths each model of development dictates along these stages. Taking into consideration the social and economic environments in which these models were developed, it further evaluates how ‘outliers’ - i.e., individuals differing from the median of human development because of age, disability, physical, or mental capacity - have been incorporated into or excluded from these different models. Finally, it asks how different models may have influenced each other over the course the 20th century and what influence these models - and their interactions - have had on conceptions and programmes of social welfare.

**Key responsibilities**:

- Conducting research on international ageing policies
- Writing two to three articles to be published in peer-reviewed journals;
- Teaching in Leiden University’s History BA and MA Programmes and/or International Studies BA;
- Presenting intermediate research results at workshops and conferences;
- Co-organizing international workshop;
- Co-organizing the publication of an edited volume/ special issue.

**Requirements**:

- Familiarity with (the history of) international organizations;
- One or more relevant publications;
- Strong research and writing skills;
- Ability to work both independently and as part of an (international) team;
- Excellent command of English. Knowledge of other languages is an asset.

**About our organisation**
Since its founding in 1575, Leiden University has acquired an international reputation for excellent teaching and research. With its staff of over 800, the Faculty of Humanities provides 26 Bachelors and 27 Masters programmes for over 7,200 students based at locations in Leiden and The Hague.

The Institute for History is the home of a vibrant community of researchers and lecturers with outstanding track records and successful in attracting national and international research grants.

Under the label ‘Global Questions, Local Sources’ scholars affiliated to the Institute combine a deep knowledge of global interactions and of specific localities, regions and states in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. They use comparative, connective and entangled approaches and resort to qualitative and quantitative research methodologies.

**Diversity and Inclusion**

**Terms and Conditions**
We offer a 0,8 fte position for initially one year. After a positive evaluation of the progress of research, personal capabilities and compatibility the appointment will be extended by a further 1,5 years. The salary will be between €3226 and €4332 gross per month for a full appointment (scale 10 - 11.0) in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities).

**Information**

**Applications**:
Applications should be submitted in English and include a:

- Cover letter;
- Research proposal (maximum 400 words), which states how you would approach the themes of the project, what particular research you would propose to conduct, and how your experience would help you to do research in this direction.
- Curriculum vitae, including publications (if applicable);
- Copy of the introduction or a chapter of your PhD thesis, or a relevant publication.
