Research Associate – Classifying and Understanding Remedies in Comparative Labour Law

2 months ago

Manchester, United Kingdom The University of Manchester Full time

Applications are sought for a Research Associate on the CURE project, focusing on the case of France.

CURE is a 5-year comparative project, originally funded by the ERC Consolidator Grant scheme and guaranteed by UKRI, based at the Department of Law, University of Manchester and led by Professor Aristea Koukiadaki. Its overall objectives are to set a new intellectual agenda and direction in comparative labour law by examining the concept and function of remedial rules and institutions. Reframing remedies as an intermediary link between different systems crucial in the production of our imaginaries of justice, CURE aims to provide a new reading of labour law systems on the basis of how they respond to violations, wrongs and injustices. 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 that are specifically designed to capture and interpret internal (i.e. legal) and external (i.e. political and economic) perspectives on the regulation of the remedial framework in comparative labour law.  

We seek to establish an international team that will work in close collaboration to deliver highly original research in the areas of the project. The work for the project will start on the 1st November 2024 and the contract is for 30 months. The Research Associate will be responsible for the case of France and will be based in the Department of Law, in the School of Social Sciences. The work shall be carried out in line with the grant application granted originally by the ERC (as a Consolidator Grant) and guaranteed by UKRI.

Interviews will be held in late August.
