  • ESR2 the Role of Culture and Tradition in the Shift Towards Illiberal
    Page 1 of 3 Job Description FATIGUE Early Stage Researcher Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Institute of European Studies The Institute of European Studies of the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland is seeking to appoint three high-calibre Early Stage Researchers (ESR) to join the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network on ‘Delayed Transformational Fatigue in Central and Eastern Europe: Responding to the Rise of Illiberalism/Populism’ (FATIGUE). Position Early Stage Researcher 2: The role of culture and tradition in the shift towards illiberal democracy Location: Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland (Years 1 and 3) and Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic (Year 2) Working Time: Full Time (156 hours per month) Duration: Fixed-Term (1st August 2018 – 31th July 2021) Salary: €28,512.48 (before employer and employee deductions – fixed for period of the appointment) per annum, plus a monthly taxable mobility allowance of €600 – paid in Polish złoty using an appropriate conversion rate. If applicable, an additional taxable monthly family allowance of €500. About FATIGUE Following the collapse of state socialism, the liberalisation of public life, democratisation of politics, abolition of state-run economies and the introduction of markets commenced in the states of the former Soviet bloc. These necessary yet socially costly transformations never ran smoothly and in the same direction in all the post-communist states but by the mid-2000s the most successful countries, clustered in Central Europe and the Baltic, seemed to have managed to consolidate liberal democracy. Then something snapped. The political trajectory veered off in new directions as populist parties started gaining more support.

    LEAF. Linking and Exploring Authority Files (www.leaf-eu.org) Jutta Weber Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin - Preußischer Kulturbesitz The project LEAF is funded by the EU under the 5th framework (IST program). It started in March 2001 and will run for three years. The scope of LEAF reflects the new role which authority data get in libraries, archives and museums: Their internal use in the cataloguing process, the authority control which is needed when authority data originating from different sources are used in a distributed retrieval process and the access control which in fact is dependent from the quality of authority data: All this can be summed up under the question: How can millions of existing authority data originating from very different sources be used together by everybody (librarian, archivist, museologist, public user) in a way that there will be no loss of information, no data accumulation without quality check but an automated linking between high quality information driven by actual user needs? LEAF will try to enhance search and retrieval facilities by providing high quality access to authority information for everybody. For this purpose LEAF is developing a model architecture for collecting, harvesting, linking and providing access to existing name authority information, independent from their creation in libraries, archives or museums and independent from national differences. The scenario will be build using authority files about person names and is integrating the user directly into the establishing of a Central European

  • University Information Jagiellonian University in Krakow Contact
    University Information University Jagiellonian University in Krakow Country Poland Department / Faculty Faculty of International and Political Studies University Website www.uj.edu.pl Short description of the university The Jagiellonian University (Polish: Uniwersytet Jagielloński, often shortened to UJ; historical names include Latin: Studium Generale, University of Kraków, Kraków Academy, The Main Crown School, and Main School of Kraków) is a research university founded in 1364 by Casimir III the Great in Kraków. It is the oldest university in Poland, the second oldest university in Central Europe (after Charles University in Prague) and one of the oldest universities in the world. It was positioned by QS World University Rankings as the best Polish university among the world's top 500 and the ARWU as the best Polish higher-level institution. The university fell upon hard times when the occupation of Kraków by Austria-Hungary during the Partitions of Poland threatened its existence. In 1817, soon after the creation of the Duchy of Warsaw the university has been renamed to Jagiellonian University in order to commemorate Poland's Jagiellonian dynasty, which first revived the Kraków University in the past. In 2006, The Times Higher Education Supplement ranked Jagiellonian University as Poland's top university. Short description of the location Kraków (Polish pronunciation: *ˈkrakuf+ ( listen)) also Cracow, or Krakow (US English /ˈkrɑːkaʊ/, UK English /ˈkrækɒv/) is the second largest and one of the oldest cities in Poland. Situated on the Vistula River (Polish: Wisła) in the Lesser Poland region, the city dates back to the 7th century. Kraków has traditionally been one of the leading centres of Polish academic, cultural, and artistic life and is online bookies bonuses one of Poland's most important economic hubs.
