[Xmca-l] PhD Position, University of Oslo

[Rolf Steier]

The available PhD position will be connected to the theme *User
perspectives and cultural citizenship. *Research in this theme will study
how diverse participatory models facilitate new knowledge practices when
collections, archives and databases are opened to the public. Contrasting
cases are planned for the doctoral study, in the domains of
biodiversity-citizen science and narrative archives-collective memory,
respectively. The PhD candidate will work with a team of senior
researchers, programmers, and experts from science and cultural heritage
organizations to develop and analyze innovative designs for user
participation in cultural heritage databases and archives. The objective is
to better understand the implications of user participation in expert
knowledge systems for policy and practice in the cultural sector.
