Julie Y. Chu she/her/hers
Associate Professor, Anthropology and Social Sciences in the College
Social Sciences
juliechu@uchicago.edu

Professor Chu focuses on the politics of mobility and its mediation across spacetime, including the intersectional dimensions of gender, sexuality, class, race and migrancy. Additionally, her teaching and research agendas are inspired by feminist epistemologies, particularly drawn from postcolonial and BIPOC feminist traditions, that seek to hone situated ways of thinking Otherwise about the problem-spaces, citational politics and sociality of knowledge production. Her most recent work centers on the temporal politics animated by infrastructural developments, IT-driven logistics and the near- and reshoring of digital supply chains betwixt and between China and the U.S.

She has written on informal economies and histories of capitalism, particularly as inflected with dynamics of gender and sexuality. She is the author of Building the Devil’s Empire: French Colonial New Orleans (UChicago Press 2008); Patina: A Profane Archaeology (UChicago Press 2016), and American Afterlives: Reinventing Death in the Twenty-first Century (Princeton 2021).

Kathryn Takabvirwa she/her/hers
Assistant Professor, Anthropology and Social Sciences in the College
Social Sciences
ktakabvirwa@uchicago.edu

Prof. Takabvirwa studies governance, migration, and the state in Southern Africa. She is working on two projects at the moment. The first is a book manuscript on policing on Zimbabwean roads, based on ethnographic fieldwork she conducted. The second project, which is under development, is on the changing meanings of marriage and intimacy in Southern Africa, particularly among Zimbabweans as they live between countries. Her research and teaching are informed by questions on the politics of representation and in the role of African fiction in interrogating and generating Africanist theories of power, citizenship, and intimacy.

Alice Yao she/her/hers
Professor, Anthropology and Social Sciences in the College
Social Sciences
ayao@uchicago.edu

Alice Yao's research interest focus on imperialism and the ways conquered subjects engage with concepts such as the “frontier” and the “tribal” in their everyday and non-quotidian (e.g. ritual) life. The geographic focus of her work is the region identified with Dian polity or the “Southern Silk Road” in southwest China, a border zone of the Han Empire (202BC – 202AD). Her approach combines archaeology and environmental studies to understand how local peoples navigated the territorial politics and economic systems of state orders. She is also interested in using multidisciplinary methods to examine the dynamics of food and gender politics both past and present.
