Tenure Track Position in Cultural Anthropology
University of California, Riverside. The Department of Anthropology invites applications for a tenure-track position in cultural anthropology at the assistant professor level, beginning July 1, 2008. Ph.D. in Anthropology is required. Salary will be commensurate with education and experience. This position is concerned with anthropological approaches to transnational communities that have one of their bases in Southern California, with foci on their geographic, demographic, sociocultural, and political-economic contexts and internal dynamics. Of interests are the dynamics of national, ethnic, gender, and racial identity formation within such communities, as they are shaped within and by their transnational contexts. Types of transnational communities that are of interest range from those of impoverished migrant workers to wealthy multinational capitalists and entrepreneurs, although primary concern is with the former. This position articulates with interests in Latin American Studies, Global Studies, Women’s Studies, Ethnic Studies, Sociology, Religious Studies, and SEATRiP in CHASS as well as with programs in the Graduate School of Education, the Blakely Center, UC-MEXUS, the Presley Center, and potentially Public Policy. Review of completed applications will begin November 1, 2007 and will continue until the position is filled. Applications should include a Curriculum vitae, a letter describing current and future research and teaching directions, copies of publications, and three letters of reference.
