Candidacy for EASA executive

Dear colleagues, I am sending this message to ask for your support for my candidacy for the EASA executive. The elections are open between today, December 15th, and January 16th, 2023, through this link https://survey.nomadit.co.uk/291232?token=q8jafLZj0bX14GT&lang=en. I am attaching my statement below, and a link to my professional web page. Please, contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or advice to give about my candidacy.

I am a long-standing member of EASA. I am a member of VANEASA (Visual Anthropology Network) and Co-Founder of ANTART (Art and Anthropology network), which I co-convened for two years. I belong to the local committee that will help organize the next EASA meeting in Barcelona 2024.

I am from Barcelona, but I studied and worked as an anthropologist in different countries: Spain, France, the US, Brazil, and the UK. I have done research in different fields: Religion, History, Art, Mobility, in Europe and the Americas.

If elected, I would like to contribute to three issues in particular: denouncing precarity, both in terms of labour conditions and because of its consequences in the production of knowledge; internationalising EASA further, fostering relations with non-European associations and colleagues, while respecting European national schools; and critically discussing our relationship with other disciplines, beyond the celebration or condemnation of interdisciplinarity.

Nominating member: Marilyn Strathern (Cambridge University); Supporting member: Alberto Corsin Jiménez (Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)
