Biography

I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in the Department of Political Science at ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳, and theÌýDirector of ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳’s Security Studies Programme. I am also an Affiliated Professor at Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas (CIDE), Mexico, and Universidad Torcuato Di Tella (UTDT), Argentina. Before joining ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳, I received my PhD in Political Science from the University of Notre Dame, and was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Konstanz.

Research

My research explores the determinants of international conflict and its effects on the dynamics of state formation, with a particular focus on Latin America. My book,ÌýBringing War Back In: Victory, Defeat, and the State in Nineteenth Century Latin AmericaÌý(forthcoming with Cambridge University Press), employs a multi-method approach that combines comparative-historical and statistical analyses to grasp the effect of warfare and war outcomes on state formation in nineteenth-century Latin America. My work on this region provides a compelling explanation for development trajectories until our day, and suggests the importance of incorporating post-war dynamics into bellicist theories of state formation.
