Talk details coming soon!
Dr. Archambault is an associate professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Concordia University and co-editor of AFRICA: Journal of the International Institute. Her work is based on ethnographic research in southern Mozambique and focuses on themes of intimacy, suburbanization, affect, and embodiment. Cutting across much of her research is an interest in how materiality and temporality intersect in the crafting of lives worth living. She is the author of “Mobile Secrets: Youth, Intimacy and the Politics of Pretense in Mozambique” (2017), and her recent work has been published in American Ethnologist, Journal of Southern African Studies, Critique of Anthropology, and City & Society. She is currently working on a book project on well-being and the cultural politics of sweat in Mozambique.
