As the position holder, you will represent interdisciplinary socialization and conflict study in research and teaching (teacher training and BA/MA Educational Science), anchored at the AG Socialization in the Faculty of Educational Science. The faculty expects a profile of interdisciplinary research in the contexts of political socialization, conflict, discrimination, and inequality, which will be continued and further developed theoretically and concerning empirical fields and questions.
