========================================
The Department of Philosophy of the University of Twente in the Netherlands is looking for
a Ph.D. Student (M/F, fulltime)

For the project "Cultural, Political and Religious Ideologies
and the Appraisal of New Media"


Women are strongly encouraged to apply

The PhD position is part of a prestigious and exciting international research project in
philosophy named "Evaluating the Cultural Quality of New Media". This five-year project,
which includes six researchers and involves collaboration with leading international
scholars and research centres, has as its aim to develop a framework for better normative
analyses of new media and new media culture, especially in relation to their contribution to
the quality of life ("the good life") and the quality of society. Project leader is Prof. Dr.
Philip Brey. The project is part of a new international Centre of Excellence in Ethics and
Technology (http://www.ethicsandtechnology.eu) of the departments of philosophy of
Twente University, Delft University of Technology and Eindhoven University of Technology.

Objectives
The aim of the PhD project is to perform a study of interpretations and evaluations of new
media and their consequences that are made by representatives of major ideologies or
worldviews, with the aim of assessing how they relate to conceptions of the good life and
the good society held by these ideologies. It will involve a study of liberal,
communitarian, conservative, religious and post materialist evaluations of new media, and
the assessment of what the benefits and harms of new media cultures are and how these
can be evaluated within these ideologies. It will also provide normative critiques of
current ideological stances regarding new media.

Profile
A Master's degree or equivalent degree in philosophy, preferably with a background in
ethics and/or social or political philosophy.

Consideration will also be given to candidates with a multidisciplinary Master's degree on
a topic relevant to the project and some background in philosophy, and to exceptional
(international) candidates with only a bachelor's degree in philosophy.

Demonstrable interest in philosophical issues relating to information technology and new
media (but previous work in this area not required). Good analytical skills. Good
communication skills in English, in writing as well as orally. Good team spirit. Creativity,
open-mindedness, and an ability to develop new ideas.

Offer
A four-year full-time Ph.D. position, preferably starting April 1, 2008. The gross salary is
EUR2.000,- in the first year going up to EUR2.558,- in the fourth year (EUR27.456,- and
EUR35.699,- per annum, respectively, including vacation pay and end-of-year bonus).
The position also comes with a personal budget of EUR8.000,- for travel and conference
attendance.
