Claire Loussouarn (Goldsmiths)

Claire Loussouarn has recently finished her PhD about Chinese gamblers in London. She is about to start a three years postdoc at Goldsmiths. She will extend her previous research to work on financial products such as spread betting among Chinese finance professionals in Europe.

The paper explores how Chinese gamblers in London create their own temporality through the unique movement of their bodily actions in the casino and how this ability of being time maker is unequally and differentially experienced outside the casino.
