Sarah Francesca Green is currently a Professor of social and cultural anthropology at the University of Helsinki . She is a specialist on borders, spatial relations, gender and sexuality. She has lived in the UK, Greece, USA, Italy and, more recently, Finland.
Life and career
Sarah Green was born in Redgrave (Suffolk, UK). She grew up in Greece (Mytilene and Athens), where she also had her first school experience (Athens). Following the move of her family to the UK, she continued school there and excelled in academics. She enrolled in the University of Cambridge to study Archaeology and Anthropology. She then became a research student there, and went on to obtain her PhD in Social Anthropology in 1992. Her career begun as a Research Fellow and an Affiliated Lecturer at the University of Cambridge, from where she moved to Manchester University in 1995 . In 2006, she was appointed as a Professor of Anthropology at the University of Manchester, where she also served as the Head of Social Anthropology (2007-2010). Green has also held visiting appointments in other UK Universities , as well as in Finland .
Research Interests and Fieldwork
Although the subject matter of her research varies considerably, Green’s major conceptual interest lies consistently in the notion of location; throughout her diverse fieldwork projects she has been exploring in both literal and metaphorical sense how people locate themselves in the world and in relation to themselves and others. For Green such locating practices are inextricably linked to political conditions, as well as social and epistemological elements. Her research themes include: the politics of gender and sexuality in London; the politics of the intense promotion of Information and Communications Technologies in Manchester; shifting perceptions of environment and land degradation in the Argolid Valley and northwestern Greece; concepts of border relations on the Greek-Albanian border; the appearance, disappearance and reappearance of the Balkans; the circulation of money in the Aegean; the notion of trust and the UK's new financial elites; and, most recently, the shifting concept of border in the eastern peripheries of Europe . A considerable portion of her research work was undertaken in the context of interdisciplinary research teams. Early on in her career Green participated in Archaeomedes I and II (1993-2000) EU funded projects exploring environmental perceptions and policy making . From 2004 onwards she has been involved in various research activities as a co-ordinator within the ESRC Centre for Research in Socio-Cultural Change . Since 2006, she has been developing an international research network dedicated to exploring both conceptually and empirically issues related to borders and bordering practices on the eastern periphery of Europe. Eastbordnet was funded by COST in 2008 and Green acted as the PI and Chair of the Action . A range of themes related to border research (border techniques, gender, money, etc.) have been explored and a fresh conceptual approach towards the study of borders has been developed (i.e. tidemarks) . The network included 27 countries and over 280 scholars by the time (Jan 2013) it launched its final international conference in Berlin A new series entitled Rethinking Borders is about to be launched by the Manchester University Press, having Green as its editor; the series will host edited collections and monographs on borders research coming out of the EastBordNet project . In 2011 she was invited to design the theme for the conference of the American Anthropological Association, which is the biggest international conference in the field of anthropology and was hosted in Montreal.
