Moises Lino e Silva is the author of Minoritarian Liberalism: A Travesti Life in a Brazilian Favela (University of Chicago Press 2022)[1] and a professor of anthropological theory at the Federal University of Bahia, which is located in Brazil.[2] His field of focus is that of political anthropology, with a specialty in the ethnographic study of liberty and authority. This is examined in relation to issues such as poverty, sexuality, race, and religion. His initial in-field research considered the aspects and issues of freedom as experienced and perceived by slum dwellers in Rio de Janeiro.[3] More recent work has studied the cultivation of Afro-Brazilian power and the nature of freedom and partial freedom after formal slavery, using ethnographic research to understand the current power dynamics between Latin America and West Africa.[4] He is also the editor, with Huon Wardle, of Freedom in Practice: Governance Autonomy and Liberty in the Everyday (Routledge 2017).[5] Lino e Silva was appointed a World Social Science Fellow by the International Social Science Council.[6]
