Postdoctoral position in comparative urbanism

The School of Human Evolution and Social Change at Arizona State University has an opening for a post-doctoral fellowship in comparative urbanism. This position is with a transdisciplinary research project called "Urban Organization Through the Ages: Neighborhoods, Open Spaces, and Urban Life." This project has six faculty PIs, including three Mesoamerican archaeologists, a geographer, a sociologist, and a political scientist. We are gathering and analyzing data on urban life from ancient, historical, and modern studies. We are looking for a scholar with comparative interests and good resesarch skills to manage a team of student workers, and to become part of the project intellectually and professionally.

Interested scholars (and other readers of this blog) can find more information about the project at our web site, with a link to the formal discription of the post-doctoral position.
