Paula Vedoveli - global dis:connect

the centre
- The global dis:connect research centre, which is sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, examines the dynamic, co-constitutive relationship of global integration, absent connections and disintegration in current and historical processes of globalisation.

research
- By investigating global dis:connections, we are inaugurating a new field of research. It emphasises the role of delays and detours, of interruptions and resistances, of the active absence of connections in global contexts and investigates their social significance.
- research
fellows
- The cornerstone of global dis:connect is the fellowship programme, in which approximately ten scholars come to Munich each year. They research dis:connectivity on site and in close contact with the directors and their peers. Fellows also have the opportunity to host workshops on the topics of their research.

Paula Vedoveli

Paula Vedoveli is an assistant professor of international history at the Fundação Getulio Vargas. Her manuscript, Brokering Capital: Latin American Public Credit and the Making of Global Finance, 1852-1914, examines how Argentina‘s and Brazil’s trajectories as sovereign debtors shaped the regimes of sovereign creditworthiness that contributed to making finance global. She has conducted research in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, France, the United Kingdom and the United States. She is interested in the global history of capitalism, histories of quantification, information and the future.

Paula joined global dis:connect funded by the Munich Centre for Global History.
