Theory Market, 2021-22

Elaine

I just checked e-jobs. To my eye, there are two meaningful TT jobs posted. One that seems legit and open to a broad range of candidates (Amherst), the other that seems tailored to an exceptionally narrow set of candidates/specialties (Bucknell).

I can't believe there will only be one real job on this year's market. Anyone know of any others that will be posted?

(and yeah, I know this will inspire the inevitable "STARBUKS HURRRRRR" response, but TIA for any real contributions)

Bucknell has an internal candidate, the current VAP.

Maybe RB since the position is also with the UCHV? Was DJ’s position also cross-appointed there?

Nevermind. DJ was also at the UCHV. Who knows, then.

Must be RB -- look at her website: "Starting September 2021, I will be an assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Michigan"

RB to UMich was discussed on this website months ago.

The question is: whose job are they filling, RBs or DJs?

My guess is that it is most likely DJs, because he left two years ago and RB just left this summer.

Princeton doesn't think in these terms. They hire when they hire, people leave when they leave, there's no concrete "lines" in the way most departments think about these things.

Will it be analytical contemporary or HPT?

Best athlete. They don’t have anything more specific in mind. Look at their past searches.

But Princeton being Princeton I think we all can guess that they’re not likely to hire a contemporary theorist.

You think Princeton is full of historians of political thought? That's certainly not its reputation.
