Fernando Peréz-Montesinos received his M.A. in 2009 and his Ph.D. in 2015 at Georgetown University in Washington DC. Fernando writes, “My heart… remained with the history of indigenous people in modern Latin America. I thus embarked on a study of the Purépecha people of Michoacán (central-west Mexico) and examined how they coped with and contributed to shape a century-long process (1800-1914) of major land and social transformations. This has been an exciting and rewarding project that I plan to turn into a book in the near future. Teaching has been an equally rewarding part of my professional life. I have taught in private and public universities in Mexico and United States, mostly courses on Mexican and Latin American history. My latest experience at Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico City (2014 to present) involves offering students guidance on how to develop research projects. Ironically, many of these projects are studies on mass and social media. This has proved to be a happy and reassuring coincidence. From 2013 to the present, I have collaborated andco-edited a history blog, an stimulating project that continuously reminds me about the importance of bringing together history and the new technologies of the 21st century.”
