PhD Positions to Study International Criminal Trials as Theatrical Performances at VU Amsterdam, Netherlands

Description
International criminal trials are not solely a matter of determining individual guilt or innocence. They also provide a platform for competing narratives about the nature and evolution of conflicts, about conflicting world views and about diverging conceptions of justice. Participants use international trials to broadcast their worldviews to wider audiences. Legal scholarship, however, has neglected the theatrical elements of international trials. This project seeks to remedy this neglect through an examination of cases across different courts and tribunals, studying linked dramaturgical and political strategies exhibited by key participants. The research potentially includes material as diverse as documentaries and films, for the way in which international criminal trials are narrated and portrayed.

Benefit of the program
The successful applicants will receive salary in accordance with university regulations for academic personnel, and amounts to € 2.042,- gross per month in the first year up to € 2.612,- in the fourth year (salary scale 85) based on a full-time employment.

The appointment will be for a period of four years (one year plus a further three years after a positive evaluation) and should lead to a dissertation.
