PhD Candidate
Latin America
Soy un estudiante en el programa de doctorado de la historia de América Latina en los siglos XIX y XX. Mi investigación se trata especialmente de Chile y el Perú, como parte del mundo pacífico. En éste momento estoy trabajando en un proyecto sobre la industria del salitre Chileno en Japón. En esta época, la venta del salitre en Japón fomentó importantes relaciones comerciales y diplomáticas entre Chile y el otro lado del pacífico. También estoy elaborando investigaciones acerca de las relaciones diplomáticas en las Américas en el siglo XX.
