Nadaljevanje programske skupine IRSA (in koncesije) v obdobju 2022-2028

Javna agencija za raziskovalno dejavnost RS in Ministrstvo za izobraževanje, znanost in šport sta nam na podlagi prijave na razpis in evalvacije tujih recenzentov odobrila nadaljevanje programske skupine (in koncesije) v obdobju 2022-2028. Ukvarjali se bomo s prenosom znanja, odnosom med eksperti in politiko v okviru strategij za obvladovanje pandemije ter antinomijami družbe znanja oz. pojavom postfaktične družbe.

Iščemo nove sodelavce

Na Inštitutu za razvojne in strateške analize vabimo k sodelovanju nove sodelavce ali sodelavke s končanim magisterijem ali doktoratom (oz. doktorske študente), ki imajo izkušnje z raziskovalnim delo. K sodelovanju vabimo predvsem družboslovce in raziskovalce/ke iz biomedicinskih ved, ki jih zanima interdisciplinarno raziskovanje, saj se bomo v prihodnjih mesecih predvsem posvetili projektu analize spoprijemanja z epidemijo v Sloveniji in širše (v sklopu CRP-a, 2021).

Za več informacij glede možnosti sodelovanja zainteresirane prosimo, da nam pišete na irsa@institut-irsa.si in dodate svojo predstavitev (CV).

Research Profile and Topics

The Institute for Developmental and Strategic Analysis (IRSA) is a private, non-profit research institution, primarily centered on social sciences. In addition to purely theoretical research (inter - and trans-disciplinary based but with strong sociological background), IRSA has developed a specific thematic and methodological research profile. The emphasis is on a multi-level and holistic orientation backed by the use of quantitative as well as qualitative methods and data (triangulation) including meta-analysis and case studies in comparative, cross-national context. Traditionaly, there is an emphasis on empirical studying of socio-cultural factors of developmental/innovation and institutional performance. Besides that we are opening a new field of research regarding the role of meritocratic principles and the meaning of the experts in the political decision-making. The emphasis of the last year was given to the social context of covid-19 epidemic with the accent on relation and communication between government and expert bodies. The new sub-discipline social epidemiolology on the basis of comparative (cross-national) method is being inaugarated and developed.
