It conducts social science research on intermediate classes (lower middle class), and particularly youth, in provincial towns in Indonesia. It runs from 2006 to 2010.

Each postdoctoral fellowship is for a period of one year, with an evaluation after six months. Both postdoctoral fellows will produce peer-reviewed scholarly publications. In addition, one will assist with preparing other Middle Indonesia publications.  Successful candidates will be hosted at the KITLV in Leiden, Netherlands.

Selection procedure: Applicants should submit (1) their curriculum vitae, (2) the names and contact details of two academic referees, (3) a 2-3 page research proposal, and (4) a short statement indicating possible interest in editing other Middle Indonesia publications.

The proposal should be on one of the following topics: either

1) The rise/ role of middle classes in provincial towns in Indonesia, or

2) Being young in a provincial town in Indonesia

Applications should be sent electronically to Middle Indonesia program coordinator Dr. Gerry van Klinken <klinken at kitlv.nl> by 15 June 2009. Positions may remain open beyond that date until filled.  Further information may also be obtained from Gerry van Klinken.
