Conférences de Junko Toriyama (Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto), Professeure invitée de l'EHESS, Chaire sécable de l'IISMM

Junko Toriyama is an associate professor at the College of International Relations, Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto, Japan. She has been researching how people in Egypt, especially women, live their daily lives from the everyday-life perspective. Her research deploys Gender Studies, which problematizes inequality and people’s suffering through the lens of gender, being critical of established power relations and socially grounded categories such as Man/ Woman, and Cultural Anthropology, which attempts to comprehensively conceptualize human beings without judging differences. Toriyama’s publications, mostly in the form of an ethnography, are written based on her personal experiences in the field, and often criticized to be too personal and emotional. Her research topics focus on life struggles in Egypt, such as balancing between work and family, family reproduction, and elderly care.
