About this position
Yale University’s Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism (YPSA), housed at the Whitney Humanities Center, is seeking a postdoctoral associate whose primary field is the study of antisemitism.
YPSA brings together scholars from across Yale, including art history, history, law, literature, philosophy, political science, psychology, religious studies, and sociology. Its interdisciplinary work examines both past and present forms of antisemitism, including how Jews have been perceived—positively and negatively—in different societies and historical moments. The program also supports comparative study of antisemitism alongside other forms of discrimination and racism.
The postdoctoral associate will contribute to Yale’s scholarly and public intellectual community through teaching, research, programming, and engagement. Responsibilities include teaching one semester-long course each year on an aspect of antisemitism, organizing at least one YPSA program or initiative annually that interests students, presenting research in a YPSA-sponsored webinar, and participating in YPSA workshops, lectures, symposia, and other activities.
The successful scholar will join an interdisciplinary research environment at the Whitney Humanities Center and contribute to dialogue on antisemitism within Yale and beyond.
