*openDemocracy.net: Contributing Editor: India*

openDemocracy is looking for a contributing editor to lead an exciting and
unique editorial project on India. The project will demand a few hours per
month of dedicated time over the course of one year, in which the editor
will be required to commission and/or write quarterly essays.

Given access to openDemocracy's platform, editorial group, professional
network and large international readership, the editor will enjoy the
benefits of affiliation with the leading online magazine of international
affairs. This is a wonderful opportunity to shape an in-depth, probing
argument about Indian politics for a global audience.

The ideal candidate will be an established and well-respected journalist,
scholar or activist; a leader in their field, with good knowledge of Indian
politics and history. A track record of writing on issues of relevance to
contemporary India is not necessary, but preferred.

Once selected, the editor will agree upon a convenient schedule in
coordination with the openDemocracy editorial team. This position has a
budget of $1000 per year, managed by the editor, and which can be spent on
commissioning or editorial-related expenses

Email a CV and a cover letter(*) to Kanishk Tharoor at kanishk.tharoor(AT)
opendemocracy.net.

(*)The letter should sketch the issues the candidate would like to focus on
over the course of the next year, detailing tentative subjects for each of
the (at least) four essays that the contributing editor will be expected to
produce.
