About the position
A fixed-term 100 % position is available at the University of Agder, Faculty of Humanities and Education, as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in History and Critical Heritage Studies: (Post)colonial Norway (Denmark-Norway and/or Sweden-Norway and/or the independent nation-state Norway) affiliated to the Department of Religion, Philosophy and History for a period of two years. The position is located at Campus Kristiansand. The preferred starting date is March 1, 2022.
The position is linked to the Claimed Pasts: Critical Knowledge and Heritage Production research group, an interdisciplinary group comprised of scholars from the history of science, archaeology, critical heritage studies, religious studies, and the natural sciences.

Our research revolves around the wider societal and historical backdrops against which texts, artefacts and archives are used for making claims about the past. Claimed Pasts thus contributes to the growing research in the field of history of knowledge.
Applicants are invited to suggest an empirically and theoretically sound case study on (post)colonial Norway. We are looking for histories of institutions (archives, private and public collections, museums, among others), epistemologies (texts, images, taxonomies, etc.), and relevant actors. The successful candidate will explore Norway’s historical entanglements with imperial and colonial projects. The successful applicant can choose a longer or shorter time period from ca. 1700 to the present.
This successful postdoc project will form part of the Claimed Pasts ongoing research.
