David Flood is a sociocultural anthropologist whose research focuses on personhood in late capitalism. His first project theorizes a new approach to understanding class conflict in neo-populist US politics, and his most recent research deals with contemporary anarchist economic strategies. In addition to these topics, he has taught extensively in the College of Arts and Sciences on the role of liberal arts in the world beyond the academy. He directs and teaches in the UVA Catalyst Program. His award-winning work has appeared in Current Anthropology, Anthropological Quarterly, Ethos, Sapiens, and other venues. He recently served as co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal for the Anthropology of North America, and is a founding editor of Home/Field, an online space for public-facing anthropological work.
