Margaret Bullen (Nedging, Suffolk, U.K., 1964) is a feminist anthropologist living in the Basque Country, since 1991 and lecturing in the Faculty of Education, Philosophy and Anthropology at the University of the Basque Country since 2005. She graduated in Modern Languages (French and Spanish) at the University of Bristol (1987), and did a PhD at the Institute of Latin American Studies, University of Liverpool (1991) on cultural and social economic change among Andean migrants in the shanty towns of Arequipa, Peru.

Interests in migration, identity, language and change have remained a constant, strengthened by a gendered perspective and focus on gender and symbolic systems. More recently, her research has centred on conflicts relating to changes proposed in rituals in the festival context, especially the polemic over the participation of women in the parades or Alardes of Hondarribia and Irun, but also the Moor’s Parade in Antzuola or Drum Parade (Tamborrada) of Donostia-San SebastiĆ”n, among others.

As a member of AFIT (Feminist Anthropology Research Group) she is currently participating in the project: Dislocating the frontiers of knowledge, gender and kinship. Friendship as politics and the redefinition of affect and reciprocity.
