SUMMARY:Japan-ASEAN Platform for Transdisciplinary Studies
DESCRIPTION:he Center for Southeast Asian Studies at Kyoto University\, Japan\, invites applications for a two-year CSEAS Post-Doctoral Fellowship under its program “Japan-ASEAN Platform for Transdisciplinary Studies.”\nSoutheast Asia\, through its regional institution of ASEAN\, has emerged as a hub for Asian community-building and development. The highly diverse societies in this region\, however\, have undergone rapid social\, economic\, political and environmental changes. These pressing issues must be understood\, and the root causes scrutinized for solutions beyond the confinement of national territory\, academic disciplinarity\, and barriers separating academic and non-academic stakeholders.\nUnder the six-year program funded by the Ministry of Education\, Culture\, Sports\, Science and Technology (MEXT)\, Japan\, we set up a solution-oriented platform for transdisplinary studies. For further promoting practical dialogue\, we seek scholars\, specialists and practitioners working on the following issues; \n\nenvironmental degradation\nnatural resource governance\neconomic growth and distribution\ndemocratization\naging\, health\, and welfare\nurbanization and depopulation\nemerging infectious diseases\nnatural disasters\n\nWorking within the paradigm of “sustainable humanosphere” (for further discussion of the concept\, visit https://sea-sh.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en/)\, this transdisciplinary program seeks to promote sustainable development in Southeast Asia by analyzing the complex interactions between ecological and socio-political environments; by developing strategies and techniques for managing social\, political\, economic\, cultural and environmental challenges; and by creating a new platform among scholars from across disciplines (including the natural sciences) and practitioners with non-academic institutions\, government\, non-government\, and international organizations.\nWith a purpose of building a platform for such transdisciplinary collaboration\, this program welcomes the applications from post-doctoral researchers as well as non-academic stakeholders engaged in research\, policymaking and governance. By building a platform for effectively combining basic research\, policy planning and social safety mechanisms. \nSeveral (approximately one or two) post-doctoral fellowship will be offered:\nThe postdoctoral fellowship will be for approximately two years\, with a starting date of January 5\, 2017. The fellowship is intended to provide an up-and-coming researcher with the time\, space\, and financial as well as institutional support necessary to produce outstanding scholarship that will promote the study of sustainable humanosphere in Southeast Asia.\nThe program is seeking applicants with excellent academic backgrounds and research training who are willing and able to cross disciplines\, who are strongly motivated to publish significant scholarship that fulfills the aims and purposes of the Center’s research program\, and who can help expand and strengthen research networks in East Asia (Northeast and Southeast Asia). \nQualifications\nWe are equal opportunities employer. Applications are open to scholars of all nationalities. We encourage applications from researchers with Ph.D.s or proof of a solid research and publication track record in area studies\, sociocultural anthropology\, sociology\, economics\, politics\, political economy\, political ecology\, forestry\, biology\, medicine\, ecology\, hydrology\, climate science\, fisheries science\, environmental science\, disaster science\, natural resources\, governance or related disciplines.
