Doctor in Social Anthropology
- Head of department of social anthropolgy, social psychology and public health
Intereses
At present my essential interests are: (1) environmental anthropology centred on the human beings’ relations - environment and the processes of naturalization; (2) local base tourism, focusing on its environmental effects and on the processes of community-building; and (3) social intervention, including just the ambience of the social services as much the processes of patrimonial appropriation. From a theoretical - methodological point of view the systemic and complex approaches worry me.
