There is a vacant position in the Department for Sociology and Geography for a Postdoctoral Fellow.
The position is funded by the Research Council of Norway and is dedicated to the newly established research centre PROMENTA in which the Department of Sociology and Human Geography will participate with the project Drug Policy Reform.
We will investigate questions related to the development of international drug policy, new knowledge regimes, drug user careers, social marginalization and the possible consequences of decriminalization of the use and possession of drugs. We will also monitor new patterns of alcohol and drug use among adolescents, associated sociocultural aspects and identities, and new models of prevention and sanctioning by the police and the court system.
