Deborah Fahy Bryceson is a British academic currently affiliated to the Centre of African Studies (CAS) at the University of Edinburgh and University of Uppsala. She pioneered research into sectoral change in Africa, looking primarily at 'transnational families' and coining the terms 'de-agrarianisation' and 'mineralized urbanization'. She has published 16 books and over 130 journal articles and book chapters, specialising on livelihood, labour, urbanization and agrarian studies.

Early life and education

Born in the United States, Bryceson moved to Tanzania in 1971, where she obtained a BA and MA in Geography at the University of Dar es Salaam. She obtained a DPhil (Sociology) at the University of Oxford on African food insecurity.

Academic career

Bryceson was a Senior Research Fellow at the Afrika-studiecentrum in Leiden between 1992 and 2005, which maintains a small archive of documents obtained during her research for her first publication, Food Insecurity and the Social Division of Labour in Tanzania.

Following her departure from the Africa-studiecentrum in Leiden, Bryceson took up the roles of Senior Lecturer and Reader at the Universities of Birmingham (2003–2004), Glasgow (2009–2013), respectively. Bryceson also consulted with various international agencies, including the ILO, World Bank, Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the then UK Department for International Development (now the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office).

Deborah Bryceson's main topics of study focus on the transformation of social and economic life in Sub-Saharan Africa. Bryceson's contributions to the field are found across the range of her publications – with her most notable being the definition of the concepts of 'de-agrarianization', 'transnational families' and 'mineralized urbanization'.
