Professor / Catedràtica
About
Mònica Clua-Losada is Full Professor in Global Political Economy at the Department of Political Science at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. She is the co-editor in chief of the new academic journal Global Political Economy.
She is also a member of the International Advisory Board of the Critical Political Economy Research Network (CPERN). She is managing co-editor of the Progress in Political Economy Book Series at Manchester University Press.
Her research focuses on the contestation, subversion and resistance of labour and other social movements to capitalist relations of domination. She uses a Critical Political Economy approach to study resistance and prefigurative practices in social and labour movements in (authoritarian) neoliberal contexts, in order to create emancipatory knowledge that can subvert and disrupt neoliberal power relations.
She takes pride in being a committed educator to students and a mentor to faculty. She has supervised dozens of MA dissertations/thesis, examined 5 PhD theses and supervised/directed 2 theses in the Department of Political and Social Sciences at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona.
In her free time, she enjoys traveling, reading and jigsaws. She loves nature and the outdoors.
