The Princeton University Center for the Study of Social Organization is
seeking to appoint a postdoctoral research associate for a 12-month
position, renewable for a second year, beginning September 2010. The
Center is a unit within the Princeton University Sociology Department
devoted to fostering research on complex organizations, social networks,
and economic sociology. The Center sponsors three ongoing workshops,
gives small grants to graduate students, and serves as a focus for
research on social organization within the Department and the larger
Princeton community. Applicants should be engaged in significant work in
at least one of the three focal fields. Research associates will pursue
their own research agendas, with the additional obligations of full-time
residence in Princeton during the year, teaching one small course or
seminar (subject to Dean of the Faculty approval) during the first year,
and attending regularly the Center's weekly workshop and speaker series.

The research associate will be paid a salary of $50,000 plus benefits
and a research-and-travel fund of $5,000.

Applicants should apply online and please include a c.v., writing
sample(s), and a description (no longer than three pages) of your
research agenda over the next 2 to 3 years. Application deadline is
January 1, 2010, with the expectation that a candidate will be selected
by February 15.

Princeton University is an equal opportunity employer and complies with
applicable EEO and affirmative action regulations.

To be eligible, candidates must have received the Ph.D. on or after July
1, 2008; or be on track to complete all requirements for the Ph.D.
degree, including the dissertation defense, by August 1, 2010.
(Completion by this date is a strict condition for beginning the
position.)
