António Fernando Gomes Medeiros is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at ISCTE - University Institute of Lisbon, affiliated with the School of Social Sciences and Humanities. As an Integrated Researcher at CEI-Iscte - Center for International Studies, he contributes to the Sustainable Societies research group. His academic credentials include a PhD (2003) and Bachelor's degree (1987) in Social Anthropology, both from ISCTE-IUL.
Medeiros's research explores cultural anthropology, ethnography, heritage studies, and national identity, with a focus on Iberian cultures and Celtic influences. His work examines cultural representation, ethnographic methodologies, and the intersection of tradition and modernity in Portugal and Spain.
His publications reflect sustained engagement with cultural heritage and identity politics, particularly through ethnographic analyses of regional traditions like the "Mouros e Cristãos" festivals and Celtic cultural revivals. These works critically assess how local practices intersect with broader narratives of nationalism and globalization.
At CEI-Iscte, he collaborates on interdisciplinary projects addressing sustainability through sociocultural frameworks, though specific lab/team details are unspecified in the source material.
