Ph.D. in History from the Universidade Federal Fluminense. I am dedicated to teaching and research in Contemporary Social History of Latin America, as well as its political and cultural sociology. In this field I have been developing research focused especially on the role of organizations and associations of landowners and agro-industrial companies and the scientific and academic field in the construction of a historical social, political, economic and symbolic hegemony of large rural property in different Latin American countries. I also have a Master degree in Social Sciences from the Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro, and I am a graduate in History from the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. I have been a professor at the Instituto de Ciências Sociais at the Universidade Federal de Uberlândia and I am currently a post-doctoral researcher of the project "Turning land into capital", at the Universidad Nacional de Quilmes.
