Personal profile
Research interests
In the area of Communication and Culture, my research currently focuses on the Culture of Democratic Recovery (1983-1993) in Montevideo. This research is located within studies on youth, youth subcultures, countercultures and artistic collectives. Recently I am incorporating the study of digital cultures into the study of youth cultures. In the area of Humanities, I have been researching in the field of Environmental Humanities, particularly notions about natureand sustainability in non-fiction literature in the Río de la Plata basin. At the moment I am analyzing José Manuel Pérez Castellano's Observations on Agriculture (1813) from the notions of metabolic fracture and epistemic fracture.

I have published several articles and book chapters on anarchism in the Rio de la Plata fin du siècle culture; youth cultures in the Uruguayan democratic recovery, and ecocritical perspectives in the work of non-fiction authors from the Río de la Plata basin, including Rafael Barrett (Paraguay) and José Manuel Pérez Castellano (Uruguay) As a writer, I have published four novels, three volumes of stories and a book of poetry.
