Professor of Anthropology Kathryn Linn Geurts

Geurts Publishes on Cultural Psychology

Kathryn Linn Geurts, professor of anthropology in the Department of Global and International Studies, recently published an article in The Senses and Society. As a pioneer in the interdisciplinary field of multi-sensory ethnography, Dr. Geurts drew on more than 30 years of work with Anlo-Ewe collaborators (from southeastern Ghana) to propose that African indigenous ways-of-knowing challenge many of the presumptions of Western (academic) psychology. .
