Wissenschaftlicher Werdegang

Nicolás Alejandro González Quintero is a historian of Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Atlantic World. Currently, he has a post-doctoral fellowship associated to the Atlantic Exiles Project at the Institute of Modern History of the University of Tübingen. He has a post-doctoral position (on leave) at the History Department and the Lab-Mundi research group of the University of São Paulo with a FAPESP fellowship. He obtained a Ph.D. in History from The University of Texas at Austin and subsequently he was a postdoctoral fellow at The Institute for Historical Studies. He has taught at The University of Texas at Austin and the University of Duisburg-Essen.

His research focuses on the Age of Revolution and Modern Latin American History. By delving on the trajectories of loyalist exiles from the Spanish American Revolutions, he examines the reconstitution of empire in the Caribbean as a political alternative to the nascent republican nation-states of Spanish America and the United States in the 19th Century.

​He also holds a M.A in History from The University of Texas at Austin as well as a M.A. in Cultural Studies from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia. He was born and raised in Colombia.
