Committee Chair:
Dr. Les Field
Research Interest/s:
I am an activist anthropologist interested in the dynamics of processes of peace building and specifically, the case of the territories of peace and humanitarian zones in Colombia. I look at the multi-scalar relationships that sustain peace and the intersection of discourse and practice in peace building and social change.
