This is a special opportunity for women scholars and is open to candidates from a wide variety of disciplinary backgrounds.
For a complete job description and information on how to apply please visit https://royalroads.mua.hrdepartment.com/hr/ats/Posting/view/443
As the Tier 2 CRC in Reimagining Capitalism you will complement the applied and professional nature of the School of Business ( http://sb.royalroads.ca/about ) within the Faculty of Management. The Faculty of Management is growing its existing programs and introducing exciting new programs at the masters and the doctorate level.
As the Tier 2 CRC in Reimagining Capitalism, you will broaden the university’s transdisciplinary management research agenda. By developing a global research program in areas broadly related Reimagining Capitalism, the successful candidate is expected to address urgent, complex business, management, and/or organization issues. The Tier 2 CRC in Reimagining Capitalism is purposefully broad and encourages applications from outstanding candidates in any social science or humanities discipline who are invested in the study of the causes and/or the consequences of the prevailing hegemonic economic paradigm that organizes society.As such, topics within the purview of this CRC include, but are not limited to:
How neoliberal capitalism that currently structures much of the world is transforming the nature of work (e.g., contributing to the emergence of the gig economy);
How recent social movements (e.g., Occupy Wall Street) are exposing the ills of the current operation of capitalism, especially its role in creating income and wealth inequality;
How the questioning of current economic norms is challenging the existing institutional rules governing markets and, concomitantly, yielding alternative market formations;
How the current economic paradigm is changing consumer behaviour, worker rights, and worker-employer relationships;
How new, emerging, and alternative business models as well as social business models can be used to reimagine how business is done;
How philosophical and sociological consideration of alternative capitalisms (or alternatives to capitalism) can redress gross levels of economic and social stratification.
Royal Roads University’s academic culture values applied research, creativity, and the timely transfer of knowledge that meets the needs of our communities and our knowledge driven society. As the CRC you will be an integral part of RRU’s overall plan to promote and develop its research enterprise and to support the university’s unique mandate.
As the Tier 2 CRC you will have established relationships in both academic and non-academic communities and a portfolio demonstrating the application of applied and problem-based research methods. You will also have demonstrated success (or a high degree of promise) in obtaining research funding from diverse sources, leading collaborative research initiatives, establishing and maintaining community relationships, supervising student research, and disseminating research through scholarly outlets. You will develop an exemplary scholarly and creative presence, complement and enrich research and scholarship among faculty and graduate students, and participate in local and international research networks. While based in the Faculty of Management, you will collaborate with other units within RRU as appropriate including the Faculty of Social and Applied Sciences, and the College of Interdisciplinary Studies
The key foci of the position will be as follows:
Undertake relevant (nationally and internationally as appropriate), high quality applied research in the area of inter- and transdisciplinary approaches to changes to the prevailing hegemonic economic paradigm. You will be expected to provide a detailed research plan outlining key research areas and questions, research partnerships and collaborations, and potential funding sources.
Develop/expand networks, partnerships and collaborations within organizations, communities, and individuals to support the research agenda, including building linkages with faculty and associate faculty at RRU and other academic institutions;
Pursue and obtain research funding from diverse sources including federal, provincial, public and private, to finance the research agenda; 4
Purse an active dissemination strategy that targets diverse audiences and stakeholders, i.e. academics, businesses, practitioners, and policymakers, at the local, provincial, national and international level;
Contribute to Canada’s research profile nationally and internationally, consistent with the goals of the CRC program. The Chair will work with the Dean, Faculty of Management and School Directors with the Faculty to raise the profile of the Chair, the school(s), and the university;
Develop and support student and post-doctoral training and research and assist in the support and development of the new doctoral program.
