Thomas Hylland Eriksen is a Norwegian anthropologist who teaches Social Anthropology at the University of Oslo and serves as the President of the European Association of Social Anthropologists (EASA) and a member of the Norwegian Academy of Science. Much of his work is comparative and interdisciplinary. His field research from Trinidad to Australia to Norway has focused on several ethnically and culturally complex societies. His work has tackled themes such as ethnicity and the dynamics of culture and identity, cosmopolitism, human rights, globalisation and its implications for the study of culture and society. He is currently working on the contradictions between economic growth and environmental sustainability. His published works include: Tyranny of the Moment: Fast and Slow Time in the Information Age (Elèuthera, 2003) and Overheating: An Anthropology of Accelerated Change (Einaudi, 2017).
