Author Biography

Antonio Martín Cabello, Pontifical University of Salamanca

I have published several articles in scientific journals such as RIS, RES, Arbor, Option, Obets, Historia y Comunicación Social, Athenea Digital, Cuadernos de Turismo, RIPS, Sociological Práxis, Barataria, Sociedad y Utoía, Aposta or Revista de Antropología Experimental. I have also published, as author or coordinator, several scientific monographs and chapters in scientific books, as well as Working Papers and bibliographic reviews. I have participated in competitive funded research and research contracts. As a result of this work, I have been recognized for two six-year research by the CNEAI.

I did postdoctoral research stays at the Alberto Hurtado University (Santiago de Chile) and at the Humbolt Universität zu Berlin (Germany), under competitive mobility programs. At present I am a member of the URJC's methaodos.org excellence group, editor of the methaodos magazine. Journal of Social Sciences and I have been a reviewer, among others, in the Qualitative Sociology, Alteridades, RIPS, Praxis Sociológica or Barataria journals. Before entering the university career, I held various positions in professional activities within companies such as British Telecom, Grupo Bergé Logística or Asitur and as a freelance occupational trainer.

My main lines of research are Cultural Studies and Sociology of Culture and, in the Today, the Theory of Globalization. Regarding Cultural Studies, to which I have dedicated a good part of my production, I have published a pioneering monograph in Spain on the Birmingham School and British cultural studies, and I have dedicated various scientific articles to its most prominent representatives. I have published a scientific monograph on the sociology of culture, a teaching manual and various articles on social memory.

Currently, I am working on the theory of globalization, using the theoretical framework of cultural studies, emphasizing the study from two global groups: backpacker tourists and corporate expats, and on their particular subcultures. To all this we should add some articles derived from private research in which, in any case, I have always contributed the perspective of Cultural Studies, rarely used in our country, although widely used within the Anglo-Saxon academic universe.
