Overview

Andrej Grubacic - Professor and Department Chair of Anthropology and Social Change at the California Institute of Integral Studies. His interest in world systems analysis and anarchist anthropology has influenced his research perspective, which includes experiences of self-organization, voluntary association, and mutual aid on the world-scale. His principal research focus is on the autonomous "cracks" peopled by Don Cossacks, Atlantic pirates, Macedonian Roma, Jamaican Maroons and Mexican Zapatistas. This research is included in his UC Press book Living at the Edges of Capitalism (2016), co-written with Denis O'Hearn, winner of the 2017 American Sociological Association PEWS prize for Distinguished Scholarship.
