Rosalind Morris is a cultural critic, writer, filmmaker, and Professor of Anthropology at Columbia University. Professor Morris focuses her anthropological fieldwork on two main areas: South Africa and mainland Southeast Asia, especially Thailand. Her earlier scholarship focused on the history of modernity in Southeast Asia and the place of the mass media in its development. More recently, she has been working in South Africa, where her writings concern the changing nature of value and the forms of political subjectivity after apartheid, among other topics. She has written widely on social theory, including Marxist, deconstructionist and feminist theory. She also writes on media and aesthetic practice (literary and visual) and has collaborated with a number of South African artists.<\/span><\/p>\n
