*Assistant Professor in Childhood and Social Institutions*

King’s University College at Western University, a Catholic Liberal Arts
College, invites applications for a probationary tenure-track appointment
at the rank of Assistant Professor in the Department of Interdisciplinary
Programs, effective July 1, 2018 (subject to budgetary approval).
Candidates should hold a Ph.D., or be near completion.

The Childhood and Social Institutions Program at King’s University College
is a four-year undergraduate program dedicated to the study of childhood
and youth through discursive, contextual and experiential lenses.  The
program is committed to the idea that children are social actors, that
childhood is a cultural construction, and is an historically embedded
discourse.  More on the program can be found at https://www.kings.uwo.ca/
academics/childhood-and-social-institutions/
<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kings.uwo.ca%2Facademics%2Fchildhood-and-social-institutions%2F&data=02%7C01%7Ckl436%40camden.rutgers.edu%7C8c7c536c38b245f98b3d08d52166a64f%7Cb92d2b234d35447093ff69aca6632ffe%7C1%7C0%7C636451647122445061&sdata=uA5Y%2FPFgOUFjRAsyzVXzRFOE1ycCSf537kodvFLe88U%3D&reserved=0>

Successful applicants for this position will ideally have research,
expertise and training around childhood advocacy and/or the participation
of children and young people in any of the social institutions within which
childhood takes place: the school, the family, the legal system, aspects of
political engagement in governmental and non-governmental organizations,
etc., although other areas of interest may be considered.  We are open to
the consideration of applications with a research focus on childhood from a
variety of disciplinary backgrounds including, but not limited to,
anthropology, childhood studies, education, geography, history, media
studies, philosophy, political science, or sociology.  Salary will be
commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Applicants should submit a letter of application, *curriculum vitae*, the
names of three academics willing to write a letter of reference, a teaching
portfolio (including teaching evaluations) and all relevant publications,
in a single PDF file to jobsearchcsi@kings.uwo.ca.    The letter of
application should be addressed to Dr. Sally McNamee, Chair, Department of
Interdisciplinary Programs.  All materials should be sent electronically to
the above address by *December 31, 2017*.  Queries about the position may
be sent tosmcnamee@uwo.ca.
