PhD Studentship: Classifying and Understanding Remedies in Comparative Labour Law
2 months ago
Supervisory Team: Professor Aristea Koukiadaki and Dr Elaine Dewhurst
Funding: This is an EPSRC funded project. Studentship funding is 3.5 years to commence in October 2024 and covers tuition fees and an annual stipend (£19,237 per annum for 24/25 entry).
About the Project
Classifying and Understanding Remedies in Comparative Labour Law (CURE) is a 5-year comparative project, originally funded by the ERC and guaranteed by UKRI, based at the Department of Law, University of Manchester and led by Professor Aristea Koukiadaki. The project sets a new intellectual agenda and direction in comparative labour law by examining the concept and function of remedial rules and institutions. The 5-year project adopts a multi-dimensional, comparative and multi-method research design to evaluate how the juridical concept of remedies has evolved across different dimensions of the employment relationship in a set of different national systems (i.e. France, Greece, Poland, Sweden and the UK). Data collection and analysis will include legal doctrinal and empirical (i.e. legal computational and qualitative) methods.
A PhD studentship is provided to work on the case of the UK, supervised by Professor Aristea Koukiadaki and Dr Elaine Dewhurst. The primary focus of the PhD studentship will be to work on key aspects of the UK case study, including identifying, collecting and analysing relevant legal and empirical data on the concept and function of remedial rules and institutions in British labour law. The PhD student will work with the project team, consisting of five postdoctoral scholars (four in Law and one in Computer Science/Data Analytics) and another PhD student (in Computer Science/Data Analytics). The PhD student will be expected to develop and complete a doctoral thesis on remedial rules and institutions in British labour law. He/she will be based in The University of Manchester Law School (part of the wider School of Social Sciences), which is internationally recognised for contributing high quality research across diverse legal fields and providing excellent undergraduate and postgraduate teaching.
