Dear Karen Gardner,

I hope this e-mail finds you well!

Could I ask you to share the below ad for a postdoctoral position with graduate students in your department? It’s a three-year position in the new, interdisciplinary Max Planck Research Group “Artificial Justice.” The deadline for applications is at the end of this month, the start date is (relatively) flexible.

Here’s some more information about the Research Group as well as about the position:

The Research Group “Artificial Justice” applies interdisciplinary methods to the study of automated, artificial, and algorithmic reasoning in law. Group members research a wide array of topics ranging from pre-modern fantasies of “justice machines,” the transition from legal logic to legal information science, cultural attitudes towards courtroom tech, and the emerging “right to a human decision” to contemporary proposals for AI-powered “lawbots.” Collaboratively, Group members explore a set of more general issues, including the relationship between normative and empirical expertise, law’s epistemological status vis-à-vis technology and the natural sciences as well as limits and opportunities of legal interdisciplinarity. The position is open to junior scholars of all disciplines, including law, literature, philosophy, linguistics, history and anthropology of science, media studies, and computer science. Candidates ought to hold a doctorate in their chosen field of study by the time they take up the fellowship.

All best wishes from Hamburg,

Katharina
