About Elizabeth L. Krause

I conduct fine-grained, immersive ethnographic research to illuminate dynamics connected to reproduction, economics, and migration in Italy and the United States. Research areas include political economy of low fertility; social memory and historical anthropology; economic anthropology; immigration; globalization; medical anthropology; ethnographic writing; and digital storytelling. Major projects have centered on reproductive politics in a lowest-low fertility context among Italians, the formation of global households among Chinese migrant fast-fashion workers, and experiences of young parenting Latinas in Massachusetts.
