Pablo Palomino

I am a historian of the globalization of culture in 20th-century Latin America and author of The Invention of Latin American Music. A Transnational History, Oxford University Press, 2020 (traducido al castellano como La invención de la música latinoamericana: una historia transnacional, Fondo de Cultura Económica, 2021)

The book illuminates Latin America's transnational musical markets, pedagogy, repertoires, state programs, diasporas, musicology, and diplomacy behind the very idea of "Latin American music."

At Emory University's Oxford College I teach Latin American and Caribbean Studies and interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate courses. A former Mellon interdisciplinary fellow in the humanities (2017-2020), I foster intellectual and pedagogical collaborations across Emory's areas and departments.

At the University of Chicago I taught the M.A. Proseminar in Latin American Studies and the History seminars: "Progress and Development in Latin America,"  "Musical Globalization in Latin America," and "Argentine Histories."

At UC Berkeley I was doctoral student and then visiting scholar. In my hometown I taught modern Latin American social history at the University of Buenos Aires as a teaching assistant, and teachers-training courses on Argentine History and Memory at CePA - Memoria Abierta.
