Research & Scholarly Interests
The Mexican diaspora on the U.S. east coast, New Mexico, and the Yucatan peninsula in Mexico. It is comprised of three foci: 1) processes and resources of social identification; 2) the effects of the institutionalization of social (including racial and ethnic) identification processes and positions; and 3) the broader politics of the production of academic knowledge, particularly the theoretical and practical stakes of committing to a priori categorizations of social phenomena, like ‘race’, ‘language’, or ‘materiality’
