3 PhD Candidates at Leiden University

As per September 1, 2020, the Institute for History of Leiden University will appoint three PhD candidates within the ERC: Challenging the Liberal World Order from Within, The Invisible History of the United Nations and the Global South, 1945-1981 (INVISIHIST)

The main aim of this project is to reveal and unravel the invisible histories of the UN, transcending the dominant Western perspective to recover the historical agency of Global South actors. The research will investigate how the UN has both facilitated and limited their role in shaping global order. This will be an important contribution to current debates about UN reform and assessments of its performance, safeguarding against further marginalization of these actors. Within this overarching project, 3 PhD positions are available, each at 0.9 FTE for a duration of 4,5 years.
