About this position

Nanyang Technological University Singapore is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow in Chinese Political Thought for the research project 1980: The Global Electoral Moment — China and Beyond. The fellowship is hosted by the Public Policy and Global Affairs Programme (PPGA) in the School of Social Sciences, part of NTU’s College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences.

Led by Nanyang Assistant Professor Simon Sihang Luo, the project examines the lived experience of electoral founding moments in China and beyond, including the political sentiments, institutional visions, and ideological contests that these moments generated. The Fellow will investigate modern and contemporary Chinese political thought through original archival and textual research, with particular attention to Chinese-language primary sources.

The role offers scope to develop an independent research agenda connected to electoral politics, institutional imagination, intellectual history, and Chinese political institutions. The Fellow will also contribute to collaborative publications, working papers, project reports, and other research outputs, while participating in project workshops, conferences, invited speaker events, and the wider intellectual life of PPGA.

Situated within a research-intensive university and an interdisciplinary college spanning the humanities, arts, and social sciences, the position provides an environment for comparative and globally oriented scholarship on China and political thought.
