Nadine T. Fernandez is a professor in Cultural Anthropology at State University of New York, Empire State College. Her research investigates gender, race, sexuality and couple relationships in relation to transnational mobility, tourism and national migration policy. The book Revolutionizing Romance (2010) analyzes younger ”interracial couples” in 1990s post-Soviet Cuba. Intimate Mobilities: Sexual Economies, Marriage and Migration in a Disparate World (2018), which Fernandez co-edited with Christian Groes (Roskilde University, Denmark), deals with transnational mobility and couple relationships across national borders. Fernandez’s own contribution to the book is about Cuban men in Scandinavia. She is involved in a European project at the intersection of migration, heritage and tourism, called Migrantours. And she is also working on a book project on gender in a global perspective, how gender and gender issues must be contextualized and understood in relation to specific places.
