About
Richard Kernaghan is an Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Florida's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. As an ethnographer of aesthetics and legal relations, his work explores how political time manifests through dynamic landscapes like rivers and roads in postwar contexts.
His research focuses include:
- Post-conflict territorial transformations
- Riverine and road-based mobility
- Ethnographic writing and visual methods
- Settler colonialism and frontier law
- Aesthetics of political memory
Current projects examine river travel techniques in Western Amazonia across historical and contemporary contexts, particularly in the Colombia-Brazil-Peru triple-border region. His 2022 book CROSSING THE CURRENT analyzes how legal and aesthetic practices reshape postwar itineraries in the Huallaga Valley.
