CSDP Visiting Scholars and Research Fellows

Princeton University's Center for the Study of Democratic Politics (CSDP) seeks up to five scholars for the 2010-2011 academic year. The Center supports empirical research on democratic political processes and institutions, with a particular focus on the relationship between democratic theory and democratic practice. Applications are welcome from political scientists and scholars in related social science disciplines at any career stage, but candidates should expect to complete the PhD no later than May 2011. Each scholar will pursue research and contribute to the intellectual life of the Center, the Department of Politics, and the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. Successful candidates will receive a competitive salary (those who hold faculty appointments at other academic institutions normally receive one-half their academic-year salaries for the appointment period, but this may vary depending on level of support from the home institution), applicable Princeton University benefits, a taxable moving allowance, and a $5,000 research fund.

Deadline for receipt of applications for 2010-2011 is November 15, 2009. For application requirements and to submit an application: http://www.princeton.edu/csdp/apply/
