The most important subjects of research: New social meanings of intangible cultural heritage, collective identities and culture (ethnicity, multiculturalism), anthropology of beliefs, anthropology of the body, and expressive culture, especially music. Being well aware of the need to enhance reflection on what it means to practice anthropology today, I have an interest in exploring the epistemological potential of new theoretical posthumanist approaches by applying their conceptual schemes to anthropology.
