Author Information

Josiane Le Gall is an Adjunct professor of anthropology at Université de Montréal and researcher at the Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux (CIUSSS) du Centre-Ouest-de-l’Île-de-Montréal. Her research areas include migration and family, especially as related to mixedness, transnationalism, identity, transmission, religion, and care. Her current research projects focus on the identity construction process of mixed individuals in Québec and on the use of health and social services by immigrant men in Québec. She is also co-conducting ethnographic projects on ‘good death’, dying and grief as experienced by migrants and minorities in Montreal. Catherine Therrien is a Canadian anthropologist living in Morocco. She is an Adjunct Faculty at Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane. Her research interests focus on identity, mixedness, family, migration, and transnationalism. She currently conducts a research on the identity of mixed children in Morocco and one on the narratives of ""illegalised"" Sub-Saharan migrants. Author of the recent books ‘Celui qui échoue devient sorcier. Récit d’un migrant camerounais parti d’Afrique et arrivé… en Afrique’ (PUL, 2019) she has also co-edited various collective books and special issues of scholarly journals, the last of which is on mixed Muslim/non-Muslim families (Social Compass, forthcoming). Karine Geoffrion is a professor of anthropology at Université Laval, Canada. Her research interests include mobility, transnational intimacies, family migration, romantic love, mixed identities, and gender diversity in West Africa. Her main research examines the transnational relationship of ‘North-South’ couples and Canadian women’s experience of the spousal reunification process in Canada. A recent project in collaboration with colleagues from Ghana explores issues of identity and belonging for mixed-race Ghanaians. Karine has recently coedited a themed issue on immigration bureaucracies in the journal Anthropologica (2021).
