Nellie Chu is assistant professor of cultural anthropology at Duke Kunshan University. She received her PhD in anthropology from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Primarily trained in the anthropology of postsocialist China and the ethnography of global supply chains, her work addresses the intersecting topics of transnational capitalism, fast fashion, migration (transnational and domestic), counterfeit culture, gendered labor, industrialization, and urbanization. She has published single-authored articles in international journals such as Modern Asian Studies, Culture, Theory, Critique, and the Journal of Modern Craft, and the Made in China Journal. She is working toward the completion of her book manuscript, which narrates the everyday lives of West African, South Korean, and Chinese migrant entrepreneurs who collectively labor across the transnational supply chains for fast fashion in Guangzhou, China.
