The Cooperation Research Group, led by Professor Yochai Benkler,

studies. As part of this project, the group is embarking on a new
effort to provide a map of commons-based and cooperative peer
production today.

Research Assistants will have the opportunity to contribute
substantively to this project, conducting and writing case studies as
well as providing input on overall research design and execution.

Familiarity with research on cooperation, organizations, and case study
methodology highly valued. Familiarity with research on motivation,
sociology, economics, and/or social psychology is also a plus.

The position will begin in mid-September. The required commitment is

group meetings) through December 15.
