The Graduate School The Future of Democracy: Cultural Analyses of Illiberal Populism in Times of Crises (FUDEM) is a multi-disciplinary environment where the collective of junior and senior researchers in cultural studies, ethnology, gender studies, and musicology are doing research on the variety of cultural forms in which illiberal populism reveals itself in times of crises. It is a collaboration between six Swedish universities. Find more information about the Graduate School here: https://www.gu.se/en/cultural-sciences/doctoral-studies/the-future-of-democracy-cultural-analyses-of-illiberal-populism-in-times-of-crises-fudem.

Research on illiberal populism is a vibrant field within gender studies. The focus is on the reasons, forms and actors of transnational mobilization against gender equality and sexual rights but also on resilience and resistance to these movements.

The examples of themes for dissertations in gender studies include but are not limited to: anti-gender movement; anti-LGBTQ+ politics; convergencies and divergencies between anti-gender discourses and other types of anti-establishment mobilization (e.g. anti-vaccination, anti-migration, climate change denial); (digital) ethnography of anti-genderism; feminist theory of affect and illiberal populism; epistemic limitations of the concepts illiberal populism and anti-gender; multiple forms of feminist and queer resistance and solidarity in times of illiberal populism; feminist populism; intersectional analysis of illiberal populism; conspiracy theories and anti-gender discourses.

Duties
The PhD-candidates will conduct their PhD-studies within Gender studies with a focus on cultural analyses of illiberal populism in times of crises

The job assignments include project planning, data collection, processing and analysis of the material, publications of results, and presentations of preliminary results and conclusions at conferences. PhD students in the Graduate School will have double affiliation – with the Graduate School and with the Department of Cultural Sciences at the University of Gothenburg. Students are expected to take part in educational and research activities both within the Graduate School and the Department.

The PhD-program runs over four years of full time, and includes PhD-thesis research and writing, courses, and literature studies. To be awarded the degree Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), the PhD- candidate should write and orally defend a scientific PhD-thesis that is approved in a public defense (disputation) and pass the courses that are part of the PhD-program.

The Graduate School will offer a variety of obligatory and selective courses, workshops and seminars related to illiberal populism, theories of democracy from the perspective of humanities, and cultural analyses of crises. PhD students are expected to engage into organizing a scientific conference during the final stage of their education.

The PhD Student will be included in the Graduate School FUDEM, funded by the Swedish research council (VR) and respective faculties/departments where students will be employed. FUDEM is a multi-disciplinary environment where a collective of junior and senior researchers in cultural studies, ethnology, gender studies, and musicology are doing research on the variety of cultural forms in which illiberal populism reveals itself in times of crises. It is a collaboration between six Swedish universities including Linnaeus University, Linköping University, Lund University, Södertörn University, University of Gothenburg and Uppsala University.

Thematic focus

Illiberal populism, an ideology representing backlash against liberalism, is a symptom of multiple crises which put the future of liberal democracy at stake. It consists of disparate, yet, overlapping cultural practices, aesthetics, and discursive struggles – from anti-gender and anti-migration to climate change denial and anti-vaccination - which oppose progressive egalitarian mobilization including antiracism, gender equality and climate politics labeling them as elitist and detached from the interest of “common people”. In this conjunctural crisis, illiberal discourses can be understood as antagonistic and contradictory - they stick together seemingly irreconcilable values, such as secular individualism and religious collectivism; trust in science and belief in conspiracy theories; simultaneous appeal to feelings and rationality through “cherry picking” methodology and a strong confirmation bias. They are popular among authoritarian populist leaders who use these discourses to make a populist appeal to “people” to either raise the support among voters or to cement anti-egalitarian violent politics. Using a rich arsenal of theories and methods in humanities, researchers in the Graduate School study cultural, aesthetical, and discursive embodiments of illiberal populism.

re:constitution is a joint programme of Berlin-based Forum Transregionale Studien and Democracy Reporting International, funded by Stiftung Mercator. Forum Transregionale Studien invites applications for 15 Fellowships in two tracks for the period from October 2023 until July 2024.
Stipend: € 2.500 per month during mobility period(s) between October 2023 and July 2024

What is the re:constitution Fellowship?
As challenges to democracy and the rule of law in the EU persist, they threaten not only the Union’s legal order, but also its self-conception as a community of values. re:constitution offers a platform for exchange and debate about these pressing developments. Its Fellowships enable early-career scholars and practitioners to shape these debates, bridging the gap between academia and practice and contributing to the development of legal and political solutions at European level. Based on a unique concept centred around the mobility and a network of Fellows, the Fellowships are designed to strengthen their expertise through open exchange and collaboration with partners and institutions on a project of their own choice related to democracy and the rule of law in Europe. Fellows become part of a European exchange network of scholars and practitioners, building bridges between diverse personal backgrounds, disciplines and countries. Their attachment to the programme continues in the framework of the re:constitution alumni network.

Who is eligible to apply?
The programme is seeking applications from European Union, non-EU EEA countries, Switzerland and the United Kingdom residents in the early stages of their careers as SCHOLARS holding a PhD in
• Law/legal studies,
• Political sciences,
• Social sciences,
• Philosophy,
• Other neighbouring disciplines
and focusing on issues on and around democracy and/or the rule of law in Europe. Your PhD research should have been completed no more than 10 years ago. Scholars who are still working on their dissertation may be eligible if
their PhD is close to completion (within a year).

• General researchers/legal experts working on questions pertaining to the rule of law and/or democracy in the EU.
This list is non-exhaustive. For practitioners, comparable work experience is expected, but a PhD is not required.

How is the re:constitution Fellowship structured?
The re:constitution Fellowships are designed for both academics and practitioners and will be awarded for the period from October 2023 to July 2024.
