Michael Goebel began as an intellectual historian of Latin America, but he has grown increasingly interested in the intersection of global and urban history in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.\u00a0In July 2014 he received his\u00a0Habilitation<\/em>\u00a0in Modern History. In 2012\u201313 he was a John F. Kennedy Fellow at the Center for European Studies at Harvard University and in 2008\u201311 Marie Curie Fellow at the European University Institute, Florence. The latter led to his first book titled Argentina\u2019s Partisan Past: Nationalism and the Politics of History\u00a0<\/a><\/em>published in 2011 by\u00a0Liverpool University Press<\/a>.<\/p>\n His articles on the history of migration and the global history of nationalism have appeared in journals such as\u00a0The American Historical Review<\/a><\/em>,\u00a0Past and Present<\/em><\/a>, and\u00a0Geschichte und Gesellschaft<\/em><\/a>.
