Research Interests

Latin American history; World history; Theory


I am interested in how assumptions concerning gender and sexuality shape political struggles as well as the everyday lives of people in Mexico. My dissertation uses the case of a major Mexican railway strike in 1959 to ask how political struggles become invested by people's individual identities, i.e., gender, sexuality, class.
