Two decades of precarious work and temporary jobs left her unsure about her future as an anthropologist. Thirteen years later and six months before her planned retirement, Elke was diagnosed with cancer. After two years fighting the illness, she passed away on 8 August 2021 at the age of 67. This obituary touches on a selection of Elke\u2019s research, teaching and academic achievements. It does not pretend to be exhaustive in any way but rather aims to showcase aspects and pieces of Elke\u2019s academic interests that the authors shared with her at particular moments in time.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.60827\/zfe\/jsca.v148i2.1318\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Continue reading<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- .post-footer --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Together with Ulrike Davis-Sulikowski, Anita Krainer and Gertraud Seiser, I have written an obituary of my long-time mentor and teacher Elke Mader for the journal Zeitschrift f\u00fcr Ethnologie\/Journal of Social and Cultural Anthropology.
