Dear friends and colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the Stone Center on Socio-Economic
Inequality (
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://us.list-manage.com/STfUVcMqDhW?e=e81696bd1e&c2id=d0cd72b7755416bfd92d2332d7e1d26f__;!!CzAuKJ42GuquVTTmVmPViYEvSg!ND5tBv-CX056jdhQUDEZuMmIBGSfmrk6Rg1lCGnQwSp1AerZuCizveWOgn9PspR_xODzqKd9uIrIjvEJpA$
)  at the CUNY Graduate Center is seeking applicants for a ninth cohort of
postdoctoral scholars. These two-year positions will begin in August 2027.

The Stone Center is an official research center within the Graduate Center
of the City University of New York. The Center’s postdoctoral program
enables scholars with a recent Ph.D. to spend two years producing empirical
research on topics related to socio-economic inequality, focusing on the
U.S. or other countries, or through cross-country comparisons. This
research will contribute to the growing national and international
conversations on socio-economic inequality, social mobility, and feasible
strategies for furthering fair, effective, and efficient policy and
institutional change. The scholars will have the CUNY title of Research
Associate.

Applications are due by November 2, 2026.

This year’s call requests applications for two different positions.
Qualified applicants may apply to both.

The first position is open to candidates who conduct research on wealth
inequality in the U.S. or other countries, or through cross-country
comparisons. This postdoctoral scholar will join the international GC
Wealth Project (

) team. Applicants should have a Ph.D. degree in economics, sociology,
political science, demography, public policy, or a related social science
discipline. Priority will be given to candidates who conduct research in
the following areas:

concentration

migration status, subnational unit)
* Intersection of wealth inequality, climate policies, and climate crisis
* Determinants (including public policies) and consequences of wealth
concentration
* The economics of property and ownership rights
* Wealth taxes, real estate, and property taxes, estate/inheritance/gift
(EIG) taxes, and/or other policies that shape wealth accumulation and
wealth transfers; behavioral responses.
