Research groups

Exploring Diversity: Critical ethnographies of belonging and exclusion

  • We investigate the manifold ways gender, race, class, citizenship, religion, and sexuality are made and unmade in everyday life, including the ways in which differences and similarities among people, communities, and other living things are created, contested, celebrated or distrusted.

Health, Care and the Body

  • The Health, Care, and Body programme group aims to analyse evolving health experiences, sexual identities, body practices, and social/cultural influences on scientific knowledge utilization in clinical settings.
  • It also examines care and self-help practices, the exercise of biomedical power, and patterns of resistance or acceptance of medical regimes, scientific knowledge, and technology.

Moving Matters: People, Goods, Power and Ideas

  • The social consequences of the mobility of people, goods, power, and ideas constitute the central focus of the Moving Matters research programme. Members of the research group explore migrating people and moving commodities, as well as the shifting networks that result from such practices.

Programme Structure

Research projects include:

  • Marriage, Migration and Sexuality: African Migrants in Interracial Same-sex Partnerships
  • Traveling Sex Education
  • Re/Presenting Europe: Popular Representations of Diversity and Belonging
  • Health-AI
  • Rhythms of Love: Enduring Romantic Relationships at Midlife in Contemporary Western Europe
  • Global Future Health: A Multi-sited Ethnography of an Adaptive Intervention
  • Eur-Asian Border Lab: Advancing Trans-Regional Border Studies
  • Disrupting Sameness in Dutch Academia
  • Arboreal Nationalism: the Political Life of Trees in Palestine/Israel
