About Jessica DiCarlo
I am an Assistant Professor of Human Geography at the University of Utah in the School of Environment, Society, and Sustainability, Asian Studies, and Environmental Humanities.
I am the co-founder of the Second Cold War Observatory network and podcast, and on the editorial board of Global China Lab. I was a 2023-24 Wilson China Fellow and a 2023-25 Public Intellectual Program (PIP) Fellow of the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations.
My expertise is centered on China, and my interest in borderlands has motivated research across Southeast, Central, and South Asia. My research focuses on China’s global integration, critical geopolitics, and issues at the environment-society nexus. I use multi-sited, multi-scalar, and multi-lingual methods to conduct immersive and socially engaged research. I am committed to long-term fieldwork and rely on ethnography to connect meticulous, ground-level cases with global processes. My research is informed by several years in the NGO and education sectors in Tibet and China, where I first started working in 2008.
