Leiden University's Institute for Philosophy invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher position in the project 'Do we owe anything to ourselves?'

The successful candidate will be part of a research team working on the project, which aims to examine whether we still owe something to ourselves by combining the insights of the ongoing debate on duties to oneself, Kant's views on such duties, and the relevant conceptions in the literature on contemporary moral psychology.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Examining different arguments for and against the idea of obligations to oneself
  • Studying Kantian arguments for duties to oneself
  • Conducting research on related issues in contemporary moral psychology
  • Presenting papers at conferences
  • Devoting 20% of time to teaching duties for the BA and/or MA programmes in Philosophy

We are looking for a candidate with a strong research profile and publication record, excellent command of English, and a record of high-quality teaching. The position is a good fit for someone who can work independently and is a team player.

Leiden University offers a temporary position as a postdoctoral researcher for 0.8 FTE, with the prospect of extension for another two years conditional on good performance. The salary is in accordance with the collective salary agreement of the Association of Dutch Universities (CAO) and depending on qualifications and experience.

Applications should be submitted via the online application system, including a letter of motivation, CV, project proposal, and sample of written work. The deadline for applications is 22 September 2024.
