Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to announce two postdoctoral fellowships attached to my projects in the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of St Andrews, Scotland - one directly relevant to people on this list, while the other may be of interest to people in the wider regional field.

The first post has a focus on Greece (economy and related subjects) as part of the Humanities in the European Research Area-Collaboration of the Humanities and Social Sciences in Europe (HERA-CHANSE) project "Times in Crisis, Times of Crisis" (TiCToC). The research fellowship runs for 22 months and the application deadline is 28 May Research Fellow - AR3127DD at University of St Andrews

The second post has a focus on Eastern Europe (humanitarianism and related subjects) as part of the Leverhulme Trust Research Grant "Times of Polycrisis in the UK and Europe" (ToP). The research fellowship runs for 3.5 years and the application deadline is 28 May Research Fellow - AR3128DD at University of St Andrews

Please do contact me with any queries.
All best wishes,
Daniel
