> The Institute of Advanced Studies in Management and Social Sciences
>
> Lancaster University was rated among the top ten UK institutions in  
> the 2001 Research Assessment Exercise with strength in depth in  
> management and social sciences. The Institute of Advanced Studies was  
> established in 2003 to consolidate and develop Lancaster as a leading  
> centre of excellence for inter-, trans- and post-disciplinary  
> research, both nationally and internationally. The Director of the  
> Institute is Professor Bob Jessop and the Chair of the Academic Board  
> is Professor John Urry. Institute members pursue a wide range of  
> theoretical and empirical research that challenges traditional  
> disciplines and fields of study through the incorporation of new  
> theories, methods, frameworks, and data and the Institute itself aims  
> to build effective links between the various management disciplines  
> with broader concerns in political economy and the social sciences.
>
> The Postdoctoral Research Fellowship
>
> As part of its overall mission, the Institute is offering two  
> postdoctoral research fellowships commencing on 1st October 2004 or as  
> soon as possible thereafter. Their purpose is to offer opportunities  
> for an outstanding scholar with a recently awarded doctorate (normally  
> in the last 3 years) to strengthen his/her research profile and  
> contribute to the mission of the Institute. The positions are open to  
> scholars from any country.

> There is no predefined field for research but proposals should be
