Dennis Rodgers:
Delinquent ethnography? 25 years of gang research in Nicaragua and elsewhere
Dennis Rodgers is a Research Professor in Anthropology and Sociology at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva, Switzerland. Prior to joining the Geneva Graduate Institute in 2018, Dennis Rodgers held appointments at the Universities of Amsterdam, Glasgow, Manchester, and the London School of Economics and Political Science. His research focuses principally on the dynamics of conflict and violence in cities, with tangents on the historiography of urban theory and popular representations of development. In 2018, he was awarded an ERC Advanced Grant for a project on “Gangs, Gangsters, and Ganglands: Towards a Comparative Global Ethnography” (GANGS), which aims to compare gang dynamics in Nicaragua, South Africa and France. He previously held appointments at the Universities of Amsterdam, Glasgow, Manchester, and the London School of Economics.
