Current Research
My research in societies in transition deals with the effects of political and economic transformations on citizens’ claims and practices around human rights. I examine these dynamics in the transition from socialism to capitalism in Ukraine, and in the reverse transition from capitalism to socialism in Venezuela. I am particularly interested in the ways in which young people fashion themselves as moral subjects under conditions of rapid social change. Thus, my ethnographic research focuses primarily on young populations and the creative ways in which they partake in politics and navigate the challenges and contradictions associated with global capitalism. My most recent work addresses the issue of youth participation in mass protest and the process of self-radicalization.
Funded by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Insight Development Grant, my new project “Institutionalized Youth Self-Governance and the
Dynamics of Social Intervention in Venezuela” deals with youth self-governance as a strategy for tackling socioeconomic inequality and youth problems in Caracas. I track the social practices through which young people define and manage their peers in situations of vulnerability and examine the possibilities and challenges of peer governance and policing where cleavages of race, class, religion, and citizenship exist among youth as a group.

Research Interests
My research examines social complexity in food producing societies. My particular interest is in how we use pottery function, style and technology to understand past lifeways.
Current Research
My approach to the study of pottery is interdisciplinary, insofar as I pursue combinations of ethnoarchaeology, ethnography, experimental archaeology, geochemistry, in addition to conventional pottery analysis methods to explore how archaeologists can improve our inferences about social behaviour through the study of pottery function, style and technology. My current research involves four projects: one investigating the relationships between social boundaries and identity in modern Zulu pottery producing communities southern Africa; a second examines how nineteenth century Zulu military towns provisioned its inhabitants; a third investigates pottery technology to inform us about the development of craft specialisation in early urban centres of the Near East; and a fourth involves examines how pottery was made in Late Woodland societies in Manitoba.

Currently Professor of Anthropology, Director of the Near Eastern and Biblical Archaeology Lab, and Coordinator of Judaic Studies at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada. He is an anthropological archaeologist whose research focuses on the evolution of early agricultural and early complex societies in the Old World (Europe, Africa and Asia) from the Neolithic to the Iron Age. Geographically, his research covers a large swath of Old World societies, from Europe through the Near East and into Africa. He is currently co-director (with Prof. Aren Maeir, Bar-Ilan University, Israel) of the excavations of the Early Bronze Age city at Tell es-Safi, Israel, the Canaanite precursor of the famous Philistine site of ancient Gath (home of Biblical Goliath).

- Early urban neighbourhoods in the southern Levant – excavation of EBA Tell es-Safi/Gath, Israel.
- Productive intensification and the spread of animal secondary products in the Old World.
- The origins and spread of metallurgy in the Old World: analysis of butchering marks on Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Bronze Age animal bones from archaeological sites in Israel, Jordan, Turkey, Balkans, Poland.

Research Interests
Anthropology of film and digital media; aesthetics; affect; publics; socialism and post-socialism; intellectuals and the state; critical social theory
Current Research
I completed a Joint Ph.D. in Anthropology and Cinema and Media Studies at the University of Chicago and my research reflects this dual training, focusing on film and digital media in socialism and post-socialism with an ethnographic concentration on Cuba. My current book project is about the convergence of political ambivalence, paranoia, and aesthetic indirection in post-Soviet Cuban filmmaking. Since the late 1980s government officials have increasingly attempted to contain dissent not just through repression but rather by providing it with a forum in cinema and other arts, a strategy that I argue has paradoxically exacerbated political paranoia. Combined with filmmakers’ increasing orientation towards the global market, this new repressive tolerance leads many to suspect that critical films are designed either to improve Cuba’s international image or appeal to spectators eager for images of socialism on the decline. I track how filmmakers turn to allegory, irony, and other forms of aesthetic indirection in ways that both disrupt these paranoid readings of their work and capitalize on demands for criticism of life in late socialism. I have also begun research for a new project on digital media in Cuba after Raúl Castro’s ascension to the presidency. Here one of my interests is in the Cuban state’s de facto legalization of media piracy through the licensing of small-scale vendors of pirated DVDs and what this reveals about changing views of property on the island.

Research Interests
My main interest is human-environment relations, with a focus on the fisheries of Gujarat, India, although I dabble elsewhere and in other subjects. Other keywords: food, change, political economy/ecology, relationality, governance, development, small-scale fisheries.
Current Research
In keeping with the complexities of the human-environment problems that interest me, I work most commonly in collaborative interdisciplinary research projects to which I seek to bring an anthropological sensitivity. I see a central role for student research and training in the context of these kinds of projects and I get a great deal of satisfaction from working with students. To date, I have funded fully or partly five Master’s students, one PhD student, and two Post-doctoral Fellows. I do not currently have any funding opportunities for students.
