Frederiksberg C
Department of Food and Resource Economics, Faculty of Science at University of Copenhagen is offering a PhD scholarship in Political Ecology of Natural Climate Solutions commencing 01.09.2021 or as soon as possible thereafter.
Description of the scientific environment
The PhD study will be hosted by the Global Development group at the Department of Food and Resource Economics. This group constitutes 10 permanent staff, 5-6 post.docs/assistant professors and 8-10 PhD students and engages in inter-disciplinary research on economic, political, environmental, and institutional dynamics in developing and post-colonial societies. The Department of Food and Resource Economics has an excellent research environment with a well-functioning administrative section. The candidate will also collaborate with research project partners at Lund University and University of Melbourne.
The PhD study is part of a research project that examines the imaginaries embedded in and produced through Natural Climate Solutions. Theoretically, the project draws inspiration from the fields of political ecology and science studies. Empirically, it emphasizes narratives as the entry point to understand how Natural Climate Solutions (re-)produces ideas about past, present and future natures and nature-society relations. The project will examine, among other, narratives that promote and contest Natural Climate Solutions by actors across academia, policy, industry, and civil society, how different actors selectively mobilize research in Natural Climate Solutions narratives, and how on-the-ground policy implementation is translated into narratives of Natural Climate Solutions potential.
Project description
The PhD study should contribute to one or more aspects of the overall research objectives of the project described above. Emphasis could, for instance, be placed on the ecological assumptions in studies estimating mitigation potentials of Natural Climate Solutions. Or on the implicit ideas about human-society relations embedded in narratives about Natural Climate Solutions floating on social media platforms. Or on the political economies enabled and obstructed by Natural Climate Solutions.
Principal supervisor is Professor Jens Friis Lund, Department of Food and Resource Economics, Email: [email protected].
