Alfred Landecker Professorship of Values and Public Policy
4 months ago
The Blavatnik School of Government and Wolfson College intend to appoint to the Alfred Landecker Professorship of Values and Public Policy with effect from 1 August 2025.
The Professorship of Values and Public Policy is named after Alfred Landecker, who died after being deported by Gestapo officers in 1942, from his home in Mannheim, Germany to a ghetto in occupied Poland. The Alfred Landecker Foundation was created in his memory. The Alfred Landecker Chair will be a scholar whose research seeks to secure democratic values, institutions, and good governance, and learning the lessons from the Holocaust and collapse of European civilisation in the 1930s, to prevent a collapse of egalitarian values, the persecution of minorities and the dismantling of democratic processes.
The Alfred Landecker Professor will be a brilliant and collaborative researcher and an inspirational teacher who has initiated, built, and delivered successful academic courses as well as more practically focused short programmes for senior officials. They will be a senior academic leader in the School who focuses on institution building and who is fully engaged in enhancing the School’s teaching programmes, research, culture and community, as the School enters its second decade. They will be a scholar of international distinction with an exceptional track record of research and teaching on contemporary political philosophy that will fit with the School’s commitment to practical education and research. They will be a Professorial Fellow of Wolfson College and a member of its Governing Body, which carries with it trustee responsibilities.
They will build, lead, and sustain outstanding programmes of research and teaching in contemporary political philosophy in the Blavatnik School of Government. They will act as a senior leader within the School, inspiring, mentoring, and helping earlier career academics to excel in their research and teaching and working with professional staff to bring out their best performance, and taking on leadership roles as required within the School, and they will conduct world class research which has clear application for governments.
Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.
For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Brooke Martin-Garbutt, Head of HR via brooke.martin-garbutt@bsg.ox.ac.uk All enquiries will be treated in strict confidence and will not form part of the selection decision.
The closing date for applications is 12:00pm (UK time) on Monday 2 September 2024.
Research presentations will be given in late October and interviews are expected to be held in November in Oxford.
