About
Raymond June is a qualitative social scientist and ethnographer who conducts research on knowledge practices in global governance. In particular, his work engages with social theories of distributed expertise to analyze how “governance” is made in transnational processes. To that end, his scholarly and applied research has focused on:
• the creation and circulation of knowledge on corruption, transparency, and accountability by policy and NGO elites via documents, conferences, and measurement instruments (e.g., indicators);
• database management, mapping, and visualization of governance transparency and human rights violations using interactive software and information/communication technologies; and
• developing qualitative monitoring and evaluation tools to examine the impact of transparency, accountability, human rights, and development projects.
His regional specialty is Central and Eastern Europe, with a secondary focus on the Pacific Islands, Southern Africa, and the U.S. in his applied work.
Raymond’s research has been supported by grants from the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research, American Council of Learned Societies, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, and the University of California, Berkeley.
