It's essentially a 3 year postdoc with 1-1 teaching
The deadline is coming up soon and I'm also happy to answer any questions

This is a new piece I wrote for Aeon Magazine

In it, I explore the phenomenon of settler colonialism in non-Western countries.

I also ask why no one seems to care about settler colonialism in Indonesia, or China, or Morocco, especially when compared to Israeli settler colonialism in Palestine

Displacing and destroying peoples by colonisation is not just a historical Western evil but a global and contemporary one
