Juliette Galonnier is a PhD student in Sociology at Sciences Po (Paris) and Northwestern University (Chicago). She studies ethnic and religious minorities and the way they relate to the city in different national contexts. She is particularly interested in how upper-class members of these minorities engage in identity-making and boundary work. She has recently published a study on the Indian Muslim minority (“Aligarh : Sir Syed Nagar and Shah Jamal. Contrasted Tales of a Muslim City”, in Laurent Gayer and Christophe Jaffrelot (ed.), Muslims of Indian Cities : Trajectories of Marginalization, New York : Columbia University Press, 2012).
