Expertise and Research InterestsEllen R. Judd has been conducting field research in west China since 2002 on the social implications for rural sending communities of large-scale rural-urban migration. The focus of the current research is on women's networks and the gendered implications of this population shift. A complementary project examines migration's effects on persons at risk (including the elderly, disabled, widowed, and orphaned) remaining in the countryside. Examining state policies of social and economic security for rural residents and rural residents' responses to these policies are central components of the linked projects. Earlier, she conducted research in the north China countryside in the 1980s and 1990s, examining changes in rural social organization in the wake of the rural economic reform. Much of this work involved exploration of the reformulation of gender in the countryside, and this led to concentrated work on the contemporary women's movement.
Since the 1980s, she has also been engaged in development work in China in connection with the Canadian International Development Agency, with a focus on gender analysis and gender and development work. Beginning in 2007, she has been involved in a joint project of the University of Manitoba and Sichuan University in capacity building to respond to HIV/AIDS in west China.
Dr. Judd has also worked extensively in symbolic anthropology and cultural production, especially in relation to drama, and she returned to this area in the 1990s with research on popular ritual opera, especially mulianxi.
Areas of substantive emphasis in her research include: political anthropology, practice theory, critical theory, gender, women's studies, political economy, social policy, societies in transition, development, community economic development, and cultural studies.
