Cédric Parizot

Researcher

Cédric Parizot is a researcher in anthropology at the Institute of Research and Studies of the Arab and Muslim Worlds, (CNRS/Aix Marseille University). He received his PhD in 2001 from the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (Paris): it focused on electoral processes among the Negev Bedouin (Israel). After this, he has reoriented his research on mobility and bordering mechanisms in the Israeli-Palestinian spaces. Since 2011, he has launched the antiAtlas of Borders program that seeks to provide new perspectives on 21st century borders mutations through an approach that stands at the crossroads of research, art and expertise. He sees the integration of artistic practices and digital technologies into its ethnographic research as a way to reappraise critically his own practices of modelization of knowledge.
