His research is linked to knowledge of the organization of productive units in Minas Gerais in the 18th and 19th centuries. Its research objectives are to understand the economic functioning of slavery in an area dedicated to the production of supply for the domestic market and its dynamics during that period, focusing on the issue of conversion of the productive structure during the so-called "decay of the Golden Age" and its implications for nineteenth-century Minas Gerais society. Two lines of analysis are used in his work: that of slavery demography and that of economic dynamics. In both perspectives, quantitative analysis will be related to micro-analysis of life histories and the distribution of wealth between successive generations.
Areas of interest: Economic history; History of Brazil, 18th and 19th centuries; History of Minas Gerais, century. XVIII and XIX. Disciplines he teaches: Society and Economics; Methods and Techniques of Historical Research.

As a Historian of the cultural in its connection with the political, I engage myself in a thematic arch of researches which contains the relationships between history and the literary, the political uses of the past, regimes of temporality, cultural transfers and the processes of constructing collective identities, both national and regional mainly. As geographical divisions, I engage into researches about Brazil, with emphasis being placed upon Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, also making incursions into other regions in the country and out of it (France and Portugal) developing punctually transnational approach. Chronologically speaking, I privilege the period between the 1830-1930 decades.
For this purpose, I appropriate the methodological references of Intelectual History, of the History of historiography, of the history of books and reading and the history of the renewed political. In a specific manner, I study the writings on slavery in the Brazilian XIX Century, of the circulation of foreign novels on slavety in Brazil in the XIX Century, slavery and social spaces in Brazil of the XIX Century.
I have studied the political uses in the regional past in the construction of the identity of the state of São Paulo between the XIX and the XX Centuries.
Areas of interest: Intelectuals; Slavery; literature; historiography; Temporality; Collective identities.

I seek to analyze the process of the genesis and formation of institutions, of the assembly of the bureaucratic machine capable of carrying out the legitimate monopoly of violence by the State. It is about making a "social history" of the construction of the State in Brazil, not seen from above, based on the central actors and their decision-making actions, but in the process of gestation of the institutional mechanisms that aimed the State and made its realization possible. . It takes as its object, in one aspect, the administration of the justice system, its practices and its uses and social interactions, seeking to elucidate the process of construction of the State's coercive apparatus. On the other hand, through the study of ways of implementing control and negotiation of the social order, it is intended to articulate the dimensions of State construction and the negotiation and implementation of civil rights that shape the spaces of citizenship.
I participate in the project “Nation and citizenship in the Empire: new horizons”, by the Center for Studies of the 1800s (CEO), which brings together researchers from various institutions. The project, coordinated by prof. José Murilo de Carvalho (UFRJ) is funded by PRONEX/FAPERJ/CNPq.

I have two interconnected lines of research: intellectual exchanges between Argentina and Brazil and racism in Argentina (1850-1930). The articulation takes place at the interface between intellectual history and cultural history, in the perspective of crossed history. I research more specifically transnational circuits of journalists, writers, illustrators and the circulation of their production on the Rio-Buenos Aires axis, having the periodical press as the main source. I am also interested in racist ideas in Argentina, their relationship with the imaginary about races, Brazil and Africa in the press, especially in graphic terms (advertising, comics, caricatures, photos and illustrations).

Since 2014 I have been investigating the relations between love and capitalism, focussing on the analysis of the domain of love as a tool for reflecting about the transformations in modernity, aiming to understand the links between capitalism and the process of individualization. Considering that love has experienced important transformations since the sexual revolution in the 1960s, either by the increase of the liberty of social actors as by the growing mercantilization of love relations, my interest has been the analysis of the ambivalences of these transformations. In a time of online applications for affective and sexual relationships ruled by the logics of an oversupply of possible partners, institutionalizing free and cumulative sexual relations, there are significant changes in affective interactions. The overvaluation of sexuality and hyperconnectivity lead to new dramas in love relations. The growing difficulty for establishing affective links and recognition in love in a social environment which is increasingly under the control of the logics of supply and demand, typical for dating apps, point to rising ambiguities in sexual liberty and unexpected inequalities in the sphere of love. My intention is to analyse how the growing mercantilization boosted by the hyperconnectivity has fostered transformations in the intimate sphere, discussing the specificities and gender inequalities generated by this social shift, as well as its potentialities and caveats for social emancipation.
Research interests: social theory, social inequalities and gender studies.

I have worked within the field of history of the family, with focus on the slave period in Brazil, since I was an undergraduate student.. My main subject of investigation has been the different aspects of family as an structural axis of society, culture, social relatios, and power. I have recently conducted research within the field of social history of culture, with emphasis on themes related to black identities and religions, music and post-abolition.

I coordinate an extension program called Clara Nunes Memorial, which is responsible for this space of memory, located in the city of Caetanópolis, Minas Gerais. There, we carry out the conservation of the singer's collection and curate exhibitions. Moreover, we offer assistance to researchers and conduct pedagogical workshops with students from schools in the region.
