Elizabeth Povinelli
Elizabeth Povinelli is the Franz Boaz Professor of Anthropology at Columbia University. Her research and writing have focused on developing a critical theory of settler late liberalism that would support an anthropology of the otherwise. This potential theory of the otherwise has unfolded across six films with the Karrabing Film Collective and numerous books, including Geontologies: A Requiem to Late Liberalism; Economies of Abandonment: Social Belonging and Endurance in Late Liberalism; The Empire of Love: Toward a Theory of Intimacy, Genealogy, and Carnality; The Cunning of Recognition: Indigenous Alterities and the Making of Australian Multiculturalism; and Labor’s Lot: The Power, History, and Culture of Aboriginal Action.
