Charlotte Al-Khalili

Charlotte is a social anthropologist trained in philosophy. Her research explores the nexus between revolution and displacement, looking at the effects of the 2011 revolution and its aftermath on displaced Syrians’ lifeworlds.

Mapping out Syrians’ evolving understandings, imagination and conceptualizations of revolution and displacement, her PhD analysed the emergence of alternative definitions of these phenomena.

Her current research examines Syrian civil society’s answers to displacement in Turkey, tracing their origins to religious and political groups in the revolutionary and pre-revolutionary periods.
