STONE CENTER

The James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality conducts and promotes quantitative research using inequality as a lens on society, politics, and the economy. The core faculty, the affiliated and postdoctoral scholars, and the students working within the center share a commitment to scholarship that is data-driven, interdisciplinary, and policy-oriented, often addressing questions that are cross-nationally comparative or global in scope.

The Stone Center:

• Is home to a group of six core faculty members (senior scholars) who teach sociology, political science, and economics, and who—with graduate students and external affiliated scholars—are actively engaged in research addressing diverse aspects of socio-economic inequalities;
• Hosts the US Office of LIS, the cross-national data center in Luxembourg, with socio-economic microdata from 60+ countries;
• Organizes public programs related to inequality and collaborates with the Graduate Center’s Office of Public Programs on several large events each year.

CALL FOR ONE POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR

The Stone Center is hiring a postdoctoral scholar with a recent Ph.D. to spend two years conducting research on intergenerational mobility and poverty. In this cycle, priority will be given to candidates carrying out quantitative, empirical research on one or more of the following, in relation to the United States and/or other countries.

• the measurement of poverty and well-being;
• public policy directed to child poverty and well-being.

The postdoctoral scholar will work directly with Professor Miles Corak on a cross-national project on child-poverty and poverty in the rich countries, and have the opportunity to work individually on their own projects. This position reports to a professor and is a full-time two-year position beginning in August 2026.

In addition to the responsibilities listed under “General Duties”, the scholar will:

• Act as co-lead on a cross-national project on poverty and poverty measurement;
• Conduct related self-directed research that contributes to the growing national and international conversations on inequality, poverty, and child well-being as well as on feasible public and private strategies aimed at furthering fair and effective policy and institutional change;
