Legacies of “dissidence” for post-Communist politics and ongoing opposition politics and resistance in contemporary post-Soviet space will be examined, with a view of how the historiography has evolved, memory politics has intervened, and authoritarian “learning” has mitigated the possibilities for non-violent and effective dissent. Communist and post-communist resistance and dissent will be situated in the wider interdisciplinary literatures on comparative revolutions, contentious politics, as well as social movement history and organization.Estimate of Course Enrollment : 20Estimate of TA support : noneClass schedule : Wednesdays 5 - 7 pmSessional dates : 1 January 2024 – 30 April 2024Salary: $9,457.90 (SLI); $9,930.79 (SLII); $10,121.77 (SLII LT); $10,326.62 (SL III); $10,570.02 (SL III LT)Minimum qualifications: PhD in Political Science, teaching on East Europe and dissentPreferred qualifications:Established record of published, peer-reviewed research on dissent in East EuropeAt least 10 years’ experience working with MA studentsBrief description of duties: will include two hours weekly seminars with graduate students; regular consultation with students; office hours, design of syllabus, grading and evaluation as required.Applications procedure : please send your CV along with the Unit 3 application form available for download on the website https://people.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/26/2016/04/Employment-CUPE-3902-Unit-3-Application-Form-June-2012b.pdf to CERES Program and Internship Coordinator Katia Malyuzhinets (katia.malyuzhinets@utoronto.ca)Closing Date: 07/12/2023, 11:59PM EDT**This job is posted in accordance with the CUPE 3902 Unit 3 Collective Agreement.It is understood that some announcements of vacancies are tentative, pending final course determinations and enrolment.
