The Norwegian University of Science and Technology invites applications for a PhD Research Fellow in Economic History within the ERC-funded project “BLOCKADE: The Hidden Weapon. Blockade in the Era of the Two Worlds.” The research focuses on blockade-induced innovations, industrial imitation, and long-term market integration after the World Wars. Using company archives and historical economic sources, the project investigates how wartime blockade policies shaped industrial development and global markets. The position is part of an international collaboration involving NTNU and partner institutions in Germany and the Netherlands.
