Ana P. Gutiérrez Garza
I did my PhD in Social Anthropology at the LSE and I am currently a Senior Lecturer in Social Anthropology at St Andrews University. My work has focused on the analysis of care and ethics in different settings. My work has included the analysis of care doctoral work included the analysis of Latin American women’s lives while working as domestic and sex workers in London. I then broaden the field of my research, still with a strong focus on care, inequality and migration while studying an anti-eviction social movement in Madrid. I have also been involved in a project concerned with inequality, care and cooperation among Hispanic migrants in Tulsa, Oklahoma. My various field sites offer a comparative approach to the study of migration and people’s (particularly women) efforts and abilities to create possibilities for themselves in the face of precarious realities. My lens on care and ethics has illuminated everyday day practices of resistance but also structural conditions of inequality.
