Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates New York University Abu Dhabi Full time

We are inviting applications for a three-year Post-Doctoral Associate in the Division of Social Science at NYU Abu Dhabi from individuals who have or will soon receive a PhD in political science or a related discipline. The appointment will begin September 1, 2024, subject to final budget approval.

The post-doctoral associate will spend half their time on independent research, and half of their time on collaborative research with Drs. Leonid Peisakhin, Joan Barceló, and Jeff Jensen. The collaborative research will be in the field of historical legacy research, with an emphasis on the legacy of conflict and historical institutions. This position is open as to geographical area.

The ideal candidate will specialize in historical political economy and will have an interest in conflict studies, post-conflict reconciliation, as well as broader topics in political economy; strong candidates with research interests in other subfields will also be given full consideration. Advanced methodological training is essential; this includes high-level familiarity with causal inference and econometric techniques. Experience working with historical sources and familiarity with public opinion research would be helpful, but not required.

The position does not require teaching, but it may be possible to get teaching experience for compensation. You would be part of a group of over 20 post-doctoral fellows and 70 faculty in the Division of Social Science.
