Lecturer in Latin American History
3 April 2012
We are pleased to announce the appointment of our new Lecturer in Latin American History, Thomas Rath.
Thomas was an undergraduate in the UCL History department, receiving a first in 2001. He then went to Oxford for their M.Phil. in Latin American Studies, then on to Columbia for a Ph.D., which he was awarded in 2009. Since then he has held a Visiting Fellowship at the University of Maryland, College Park, and then a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship at Hamilton College in New York. His study of military politics in twentieth-century Mexico will be published shortly by the University of North Carolina Press. He is also interested in historical memory, democratization and demilitarization across Latin America. We look forward to him joining the Department in August.
