Sara Smith is Associate Professor of Geography at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. She is a feminist political geographer interested in the relationship between territory, bodies, and the everyday. Her research seeks to understand how politics and geopolitics are constituted through intimate acts of love, friendship, and birth. She has worked in Ladakh, India, on questions of marriage and family planning, and is now engaged in a project on marginalized Himalayan youth. She also pursues these issues as they emerge in the US and global context, through developing work on race, biopolitics, and the future. She is the author of Intimate Geopolitics: Love, Marriage, Territory, and the Future on India’s Northern Threshold and Political Geography: A critical introduction.
