Friederike Fleischer

I am Associate Professor at the Department of Anthropology, Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá. Previously I was a post-doctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Halle, Germany. My work in urban anthropology in China and Colombia has focused on socio-economic and spatial stratification processes; housing, inequality, and mobility; social support and wellbeing. I am the author of the monographs Suburban Beijing (Minnesota University Press, 2010) and Soup, Love, and a Helping Hand: Social Support in Guangzhou, China (Berghahn, 2018), and co-editor of Ethnographies of Support (Palgrave, 2013).
