Drawing on theoretical interests in culture, nationalism, colonialism, representation, performance and sexuality, Professor Murray has conducted fieldwork in the Caribbean and New Zealand that examines the processes and politics of identity making projects and their relations to local, national and transnational political and economic forces. He has published numerous articles, a book investigating the production of cultural identity in relation to gender, sexuality and race in Martinique, and an edited volume examining the production of homophobia in different socio-political contexts. A new project examines the experiences of 'queer refugees' with the Canadian Immigration and Refugee Board and Canadian queer urban communities. |
