RA-L
[liste ra-l] (en) PhD Studentships, Loughborough - call for proposals on anarchism.
From: Dave Berry <D.G.Berry-AT-lboro.ac.uk>
PLEASE CIRCULATE
The Department of Politics, International Relations & European Studies (soon
to become the Department of Politics, History & International Relations) has
a minimum of two fully-funded postgraduate research studentships available,
to begin in October 2009.
The Studentships provide a maintenance award of £13,290 p.a. for three
years, and cover fees at the UK/EU level.
The deadline for the receipt of applications is 30 April 2009.
Please note:
- The Studentships are only for full-time study.
- They are only open to UK/EU applicants.
- Any applicant who is eligible to do so will be expected to apply to the
AHRC/ESRC as appropriate (which has to be done through the Department).
Applications are invited in any area which lies within the Department's
areas of expertise, but Dr Ruth Kinna and Dr Dave Berry would welcome any
research proposals in the broad area of anarchist studies (history, politics
or theory).
Ruth Kinna's research interests are in the history of ideas, late
nineteenth-century socialism and anarchist thought and contemporary
anarchism. Current interests include the relationship between anarchism and
utopianism, early anarchist terrorism and debates about anarchism and
Marxism. She is the author of Anarchism A Beginner's Guide (Oneworld, 2005)
and is the editor of Anarchist Studies.
Dave Berry's research interests are in the 20th century history of anarchism
and of the 'alternative left' (particularly in France, and particularly the
libertarian communist tradition) and in labour history (particularly
syndicalism). Publications include A History of the French Anarchist
Movement, 1914-1945 (Greenwood Press, 2002 & AK Press, 2009) and a number of
papers on the politics of Daniel Guérin. He is reviews editor of Anarchist
Studies.
Ruth and Dave were among the founding members of the Anarchist Studies
Network (anarchist-studies-network.org.uk/); Loughborough was the
venue for the First Anarchist Studies Conference in September 2008; the
Department has already seen the successful completion of one PhD on
anarchism (Alex Prichard on Proudhon and International Politics), and
between them Ruth and Dave are currently supervising a further four PhD
students in the area (Saku Pinta on convergences and divergences between
anarchism and Marxism, Sureyyya Turkeli on anarchism and ethnocentrism, Matt
Wilson on anarchist ethics, and Gwendolyn Windpassinger on queer anarchism
in contemporary Buenos Aires).
If you are interested in applying, please contact Ruth
(r.e.kinna-AT-lboro.ac.uk) or Dave (d.g.berry-AT-lboro.ac.uk). We are happy to
discuss draft proposals before a formal application is made. Further details
