Research interests

The construction of the Nation-State in Latin America during the nineteenth century is now my main field of interest. The role of the "regular" and "irregular" armed forces, the bureaucracy and the man of law was essential in this process. I am studying the question in a comparative framework that includes several countries in Latin America.
