The Department of Political Science is recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow (SKO 1352) with specialisation in public policy and administration, comparative politics or international relations. The successful applicant will work with the political science component of the interdisciplinary research project “Renewable energy-driven recycling of CO2 and H2O to consumer products and fuels, (CH-CYCLE)”. The appointment is a fulltime position for a period of three years. Depending on the candidate’s competence and the teaching needs of the department, the fellowship period can be extended up to four years for other types of qualification work including various teaching tasks and obligations.

The primary aim of CH-CYCLE is to understand how to overcome key technological, environmental and political obstacles to renewable energy driven recycling of CO2 and H2O to consumer products and fuels. The political science component of CH-CYCLE explores policies that influence the development of Carbon Removals, and particularly Carbon Capture and Usage. Three political science issues are crucial to CH-CYCLE. First, Europeanization of CCU policies, for instance studies of the relationship between national and EU-level policy developments in countries such as Germany and Norway. Second, examining science-policy relationships relating to CCU. This may include studies of how varying expert communities portray the role of Carbon Capture and Usage in the climate transition, for instance through modelling. Third, studies of CCU relevant policy developments at the national level, for instance explored through process-tracing or large-text assessments. The Postdoctoral Fellow is expected to contribute to cross-disciplinary publications in the CH-CYCLE project.
