Biography 

Juliette Duclos-Valois is a PhD student in social anthropology and ethnology at EHESS (Paris) under the supervision of Michel Naepels (CNRS/EHESS-IRIS)  and  Kamel Doraï (CNRS/Ifpo). Her research focuses on mobilities in their relation to experiences of violence and conflict, based upon an ethnographic fieldwork done with Iraqis in Jordan and in Iraqi Kurdistan. Besides this perspective of political anthropology, she reflects upon ethnographic fieldwork methodology and on the relation between anthropology and philosophy. She has received a doctoral contract  (2015‐2018) from the CNRS InSHS.

Research project

Her research falls into the topic of civil “insecurities” of the Lajeh research project. Based upon an ethnographic fieldwork with Iraqis in Jordan and in Iraqi Kurdistan, her work articulates a reflection on coping strategies in situation of exile, migratory and mobility dynamics as well as on the subjectivisations of violence.
