Christiane Alsop

Christiane K. Alsop, Ph.D., is a writer and an adjunct professor in Lesley University’s Graduate Program for International Higher Education and Intercultural Relations. She has crisscrossed the borderlands of the familiar and the unfamiliar in multiple ways. She grew up in Germany and moved to the U.S. twenty years ago. Now, she lives and dreams in two languages. Her first research study in social psychology of love relationships was strictly quantitative, yet her travels brought her to the land of qualitative inquiry about The Meaning of Objects, methodological reflections on ethnography and auto-ethnography (Home and Away, Grenzgängerin), and literary adventures (in form of a personal essay Presumed Guilty, reflections on the craft of writing Beyond the Margins, and a novel currently in its third revision).
