Open Postdoctoral Researcher Position in Project: “A Dim Light of Dawn: Finnish Post-Cold War Experiences Between East and West, 1989–1995”

Job description

The researcher’s task is to investigate how European integration and the transformation of Finnish society are reflected in citizens’ experiences, identities, and interpretations of the possible futures of the early 1990s. The post-Cold War period was marked by the debate on membership of the European Union and both public and private reflection on the changing “Finnishness” in the unfolding world. Finland’s mental geography changed as the Baltic states and Russian part of Karelia opened to wider tourism. Alongside political debate and media discussions, the entertainment and other cultural products of the time contributed to the construction of the experience of the period.
