Sociologist degree with a specialization in Political Science, a master’s degree in Anthropology, and a PhD in Historia de los Andes. My academic trajectory has been dedicated to investigating the historical dynamics of the hacienda system in the Chimborazo province during the 20th century. My research has focused on the intricate mechanisms of land dispute, a fundamental aspect that has significantly influenced Ecuador's social, political, and economic trajectory. I have examined the interactions among diverse social actors, including landowners, indigenous peasant communities, and other stakeholders intrinsic to the regional hacienda system. Through an interdisciplinary approach that integrates sociology, anthropology, and history, I have explored the complexities of land access struggles, shedding light not only on contemporary conflicts but also on the historical underpinnings and sociopolitical ramifications that shape the current discourse surrounding this topic.
