Biography

Antonio Ferraz de Oliveira is a political historical geographer with expertise in the history of international thought from the 1800s onwards. His work focuses on ideas related to geopolitics, territory, political spatiality, and global environmental governance. He aims to unravel the connections between geopolitical and environmental concerns through the writings of early twentieth-century political geographers and international relations thinkers. His research is rooted in global intellectual history and seeks to contribute to the critical dialogue surrounding Anthropocene geopolitics, shedding light on unsettling continuities. In addition, he co-convenes a research group focused on 'Technopolitics, Earthly Limits, and Speculative Geopolitics from the 1800s onwards.' His teaching covers a range of geographical topics from foundational principles to advanced studies in geopolitical boundaries and social research methodologies.
