Biography

Mano Delea is a lecturer in Modern Dutch history at the University of Amsterdam's Department of History, European Studies and Religious Studies. He completed his PhD in History at the same university in 2019, focusing on themes of collective memory and the implications of Atlantic chattel slavery on Pan-African knowledge production. Delea has a diverse teaching portfolio, including courses on historiography and world history, and has previously lectured at institutions such as Radboud University and Utrecht University. His involvement in socio-political research is evident through co-founding the Power Movement(s) research group, which emphasizes social transformations and historical trajectories related to emancipation and imperialism. He has contributed to important research projects, including a notable report on the legacy of Dutch slavery published in 2020. Delea is actively engaged in current research exploring the dissonant voices in the Dutch parliamentary debates on abolition and the historical discourses surrounding anti-imperialism focusing on the Global South, with multiple publications anticipated in the coming years.
