Abstract

Jeffrey J. Juris (New Jersey, 1971-Boston, 2020) was a pioneer in the study of the antiglobalization movement, a topic to which he dedicated his doctoral thesis, presented at the University of Berkeley and later published in his influential book Networking Futures: the Movements against Corporate Globalization (2008). In addition to the United States, he carried out field work in Catalonia and Mexico, based on a transnational and militant ethnography. The article reviews the trajectory of this anthropologist, who disappeared in June 2020, based on the testimony of people who agreed with him, assessing his contribution to the study of networked social movements.
