The ERC project MAKEBELIEF: The Religious Politics of Theme Parks investigates how in the 21st century, immersive media are mobilized to ‘imagineer’ religion. In order to do so, the project provides a comparative analysis of religious theme parks and museums in the Netherlands, China, Turkey, and the United States. The Meertens Institute offers a position within this project for a postdoctoral researcher MAKEBELIEF: Imagineering Religion and Religious Heritage in the Netherlands (0.7 fte) for 3 years
What you will be doing
You will work as a postdoctoral researcher in an interdisciplinary team of researchers. Your research will focus on the use of immersive media to ‘imagineer’ religion and heritage in the Netherlands. In particular, you will be tasked with researching how themed environments, including theme parks and museums, attempt to influence how people think and feel and how these attempts to influence people are experienced, embraced, or contested by audiences. You will conduct ethnographic fieldwork in the Netherlands as well as participate in collaborative research endeavors with other team members.

Diversity & Inclusion
The KNAW considers a working environment in which everyone feels welcome and appreciated of great importance. A working environment in which attention is paid to individual quality and where development opportunities are paramount. Together we strive for an inclusive culture in which we embrace differences. We would therefore like to invite candidates who want to contribute to this through their background and experience. In the event of equal suitability, preference will be given to the candidate who thus enhances diversity within the Academy.
