Thomas Klubock

Associate Professor

(Ph.D., Yale University, 1993)


Research Interests:

The history of gender and sexuality, working-class history, and environmental history in twentieth-century Latin America, with a focus on modern Chile. Currently, he is embarked on a study of Chile's southern frontier that brings together the approaches and methodologies of social and environmental history to examine the history of Chile's native temperate rain forests. This study examines the environmental history of the rain forest as linked to the process of modern state formation, conflicts over land and labor, and the politics of nationalism, citizenship, and ethnicity.
