Post-Doc on social capital, social solidarity, and civic engagement

Professor Bob Putnam and Tom Sander of Harvard Kennedy School’s Saguaro Seminar are searching for two stellar post doctoral fellows for the 2011-2012 academic year. The research will examine questions such as:
*What is the impact of sustained unemployment on civic engagement?
*Are social and political cleavages growing – e.g., between young and old, or haves and have-nots?
*How can societies adapt to challenges posed by large-scale immigration?
*Does religion foster or impair democratic citizenship?

During the fellowship, the selected scholars have to produce at least one to two high quality scholarly articles on our shared research agenda.
Full description and application here.

For any questions, please don’t hesitate to be in touch with Tom Sander tom_sander@harvard.edu
