About Me

My approach to Latin American history is informed by questions concerning the understanding of order, disorder, and the ‘extraordinary’. My research examines the interplay and discrepancies between ongoing crises, experiences, and narratives of cultural cohesion and geopolitical stability in the region. How can the orders and disorders of Latin American republics be theorised beyond opposition? What emerges between and outside the orders and disorder of Eurocentric and popular modernisation projects? How have different actors navigated the zones of indeterminacy created by encompassing political and cultural transformations? Within these conceptual frameworks, I also consider the limitations and potential of the Global South as a political identity and a research field. In my research and teaching, I also address the methodological aspects of interdisciplinary work, as well as the contribution of decolonial critiques to knowledge production.
