Life

She graduated from University of Texas, and received her PhD from Columbia University. Her primary research areas are logistics and trade, infrastructure, policing and incarceration, gender, nationalism, political and social movements, refugees, and diasporas in the Middle East.[1] Her commentary on Middle Eastern and Iranian affairs has been used in several newspapers, including the Washington Post,[2] the San Francisco Chronicle,[3] the Chicago Tribune, the Financial Times, and Agence France-Presse. Khalili writes regularly for Iranian.com.

In 2007, Laleh Khalili signed an open letter in support of Haleh Esfandiari.[4] She was part of the anti-racist coalition that reviewed an article by Kamel Daoud on violence against women in Cologne.[5] The collective argued that Daoud used stereotypes and orientalist themes.[6] Following the collective pressures, Kamel Daoud stopped his work as a journalist.
