Postdoctoral Research Fellowship on the Soviet Union’s home front and the war on Soviet civilians in the Second World War.

Funded by the European Research Council, the Advanced Grant “The Global War on Civilians, 1905- 1945” aims at exploring the evolution of types of warfare that targeted the enemy’s civil population, focusing on (1) aerial bombardment, and civil defense (2) food blockades, and home front campaigns to ration food, and (3) efforts to “demoralize” enemy civilians, while boosting “morale” at home. We investigate how the transnational circulation of knowledge and practices culminated by World War II in systematic attacks on civilians and the creation of home fronts that mobilized civilians.

University of Bordeaux Visiting Scholars

The University of Bordeaux offers funding for visiting researchers and professors via an annual call for applications within the Visiting Scholars programme. The aim of the programme is to enable the university's research laboratories and departments, as well as doctoral and undergraduates students, to benefit from the presence of scholars with recognised international careers and/or considerable expertise. Therefore, the mobility projects proposed by applicants must be jointly based on research and teaching.
