Andrea Muehlebach is Associate Professor of Anthropology at the Department of Anthropology at the University of Toronto Mississauga. An economic and political anthropologist, she explores the ethics and politics of economic life—as notably on questions such as welfare, citizenship, and morality and, more recently, on the political, economic, and ethical implications of water privatization and financialization. She is the author of The Moral Neoliberal (University of Chicago Press, 2012). Her book-in-progress, A Vital Politics: Water Insurgencies in Europe, is a study of different water movements in Europe and the question of how water—as commons or “resource”—should be governed and valued now and in the future.
