The Department of Ethnic Studies seeks an historian of Asian American and/or Pacific Islander politics and community-driven change, at the rank of Assistant Professor. Understanding Asian American and Pacific Islander politics and community-driven change expansively as taking myriad distinct forms across local, national, regional, transnational and other scales, the department welcomes applications from scholars working on histories within and across this range. Potential foci and areas of specialization include, but are not limited to social movements; relations and solidarities linking the US, Asia, and the Pacific; anti-colonialism and anti-imperialism; anti-militarism and demilitarization; climate/environmental justice; native sovereignty; gender and sexuality; religion; caste; migration; labor. The department embraces intersectional and interdisciplinary approaches to research and teaching. As faculty in the Asian American and Asian Diaspora Studies (AAADS) program and a member of the AAPITF cluster, the successful applicant will actively participate in AAADS and the AAPITF cluster efforts. The candidate will be expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses, including Introduction to Asian American and Pacific Islander Histories and courses on historical methods.
