Hsain Ilahiane
Hsain Ilahiane is an associate professor of anthropology and the department's director of graduate education. Ilahiane's
research deals with natural and cultural resource management, ethnicity
and social mobility, agrarian change, the informal sector, and information
and communications technologies. He has recently been engaged in investigating
the uses of mobile technologies (mobile phones) in social and economic
development. He has conducted fieldwork in Morocco, Uganda, Kenya,
and in the southwestern United States (among the Tohono O'odham, the
Hopis, the Paiute, and the Colorado River Indians). He interned at
the World Bank's department of natural resources, and he consulted
for the USAID, the USDOE, Care International, the FAO, and the UNEP.
Thus far, his work has appeared in the American Anthropologist,
Ethnology, Africa Today, Journal of Political
Ecology, Journal of North African Studies, the International
Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, and Prologues. His
ethnography on the Ziz Oasis, Ethnicities, Community Making, and Agrarian
Change: the Political Ecology of a Moroccan Oasis, was published in
2004. His second book, The Historical Dictionary of the Berbers,
is in press.
