Notă biografică
Rebecca Empson is a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Social Anthropology, University of Cambridge. In 2003 she completed her PhD, which was based on fieldwork among Buryats from the northern Mongolian-Russian border. Her thesis focused on the mobility of kin relations from the perspective of children and daughters-in-law. She is currently preparing a monograph based on this work, with particular reference to memory and reincarnation.
