About
I am a Research Fellow affiliated to the Centre for Research on Socio-Cultural Change and the Research Institute for Cosmopolitan Cultures at the University of Manchester. I studied at the University of Chicago, where I receiving an MA in Russian/Soviet history, and at the University of Cambridge, where I studied for an undergraduate degree in Social and Political Sciences and from where I received my PhD in Social Anthropology in 2008. Between 2000 and 2002, and again in 2005 I taught at the American University - Central Asia (AUCA) in Bishkek, and I have maintained close ties with this University, serving as an external examiner since 2005.
My research lies in the anthropology of politics, with a particular interest in borders, transnational migration, documentary practices and the ethnography of the state. My doctoral dissertation, which I am revising into a book manuscript, explored the everyday materialisation of new international borders in the Ferghana valley. I am also working on a new project on transnational ties between southern Kyrgyzstan and Moscow.
