Paul Ryer

Currently in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Riverside, Professor Ryer has conducted long-term research in Cuba--where he has been affiliated with the University of Havana--and in its diaspora, including research following Cuban-educated African students as they migrate again, forging new diasporas and fashioning hybridized homelands. Professor Ryer’s book, In Caribbean Waters: África, La Yuma, and the Imagined Geographies of Contemporary Cuba, is in production with Vanderbilt University Press; other publications, awards, and professional activities are listed on his faculty webpage.
