Description
Steven Lukes, Professor of Politics and Sociology at New York University, was awarded the Senior Visiting Fellowship for the academic year 2015/16.
His research examines how morals relate to politics, economics, law, and religion. Steven Lukes explores the nature and functioning of moral norms or ‘ordinary ethics’, and the distinctive contribution that a sociological-cum-anthropological approach can make to the study of this topic. Post-doctoral researchers in the humanities and social sciences whose research relates to these topics and who would benefit from collaborating with Professor Lukes are invited to apply for one of the two Junior Visiting Fellowships. Junior Visiting Fellows will be invited to stay at the IWM for six to ten months between September 2015 and July 2016. They should ideally be from a different country or region and not already affiliated to the Senior Fellow’s own institution or ongoing research projects.
