**Student Research Assistant at the Chair of International Conflict Research**:
**20%-40%, Zurich, fixed-term**:
The Chair of International Conflict Research (ICR), within the Department of Humanities, Social and Political Sciences at ETH Zurich, is looking for a student research assistant to support research on nationalist movements around the world.

The starting date is **September 1, 2023**, or upon mutual agreement. The position is limited until **February 2024**, with possible renewal, depending on other projects in the ICR group.

**Project background**:
The main goal of the project is to collect information on the existence, type, and characteristics of **majority nationalist movements around the world since WW2**. For instance, this includes white supremacism in the US, Hindu nationalism in India, and Serb nationalism in Yugoslavia/Serbia. Using this data, we examine the causes and consequences of majority nationalism around the world. The ICR group is headed by Prof. Lars-Erik Cederman and the data collection is overseen by Andreas Juon.

**Job description**:
The tasks include the following: 1. **Country-wise research**: reading country-wise historical overviews, identifying additional secondary sources, and conducting brief web research on specific organizations. 2. On the basis of these sources, **identifying majority nationalist movements and coding variables** that capture their characteristics (e.g., specific nationalist organizations, typical demands in each time period, ideological justifications). 3. **Documenting the coding decisions **by writing short narratives (usually ~3-4 pages) for each country and majority nationalist movement identified.

The renumeration follows standard ETH guidelines for research assistants. During the semester, the position is offered at **20-40%**, with the possibility to increase this during the semester holidays, depending on your availability and preferences.

**Your profile**:

- We are looking for a proactive, motivated, and well-organized person, who is studying political science or a related discipline at either the Master or advanced Bachelor level.
- Interest and previous studies or work on nationalism, populism, or ethnic conflict are an advantage.
- You should be able to speak and write clearly in English.

**We offer**:
ETH Zurich is a family-friendly employer with excellent working conditions. You can look forward to an exciting working environment, cultural diversity and attractive offers and benefits.
