Job Description
The Department of History seeks to appoint a Lecturer specialising in the history of the modern political thought of Africa, the Americas or Asia. Applicants are expected to have expertise in the political thought of a particular region; but their research and teaching might also speak to the transnational, transcontinental and/or global exchange and flow of ideas. We particularly encourage candidates with expertise in the modern political thought of the Global South to apply.
You will conduct and publish high quality research in the subject, seek external research funding and engage in impact-generating activities. You will contribute to survey modules on the history of political thought and modern world history, develop a teaching portfolio in your area of specialism, and contribute to the planning, organisation and delivery of other teaching activities at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. You will assume pastoral and administrative responsibilities, and participate actively in the life and culture of the department. A strong research record, excellent teaching ability, outstanding interpersonal skills and a collaborative ethos are essential for the role.
King’s History department is an internationally-recognised centre for the study of the history of the world. Our undergraduate curriculum introduces students to world history from the early medieval period to the present; it then offers students pathways to study every continent through their second and third years. Our MA provision is similarly broad, developing students’ expertise in medieval, early modern and modern world history. We are an intellectual home for scholars of every region of the world, who use approaches which range from local micro-histories to large-scale quantitative analysis. We particularly value conversation between scholars of different periods and places, with different approaches.
We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates as they are under-represented in the Department of History. Applications from members of groups marginalized on any grounds enumerated under the Equality Act are particularly welcome.
