She writes and teaches on capitalism and globalization, cultural studies of finance capital, feminist studies, comparative race and ethnicity, and American culture. Her book Liquidated: An Ethnography of Wall Street, published by the Duke University Press in 2009, examines the everyday practices and ideologies of Wall Street investment bankers and explores how a financially dominant but unstable market system is produced and justified through the structures and strategies of corporations and larger economy. Ho has also published in American Anthropologist: “Disciplining Investment Bankers, Disciplining the Economy: Wall Street’s Institutional Culture of Crisis and the Downsizing of American Corporations”, and in Encypledia of Social and Cultural Anthropology: “Finance.”
