Hi everyone!

I am currently studying Anthropology in the US as an international student from Italy. i know I would eventually like to move back to a European country and hopefully get a professorship there. Now I am trying to decide where to apply for my PhD. Knowing that I would like to work and live in Europe, would you recommend I do my PhD in a European or American institution?

What I especially like about US PhD programs is that they are better funded and that you have more time to specialize in whatever you want; however, I know that doing my PhD in the US will prevent me from creating relationships in European universities, which might eventually help me get an academic job. Any recommendations?
