Short CV

Isabella M. Radhuber’s research questions how ways of dealing with natural resources affect and form societies - politically, ecologically and economically. Her empirical focus is on highly diverse, postcolonial societies in Latin America and Europe. She is currently a Marie S. Curie Fellow, funded by the Austrian Science Fund. This has involved two twelve month periods (as a visiting academic) at the Department of Geography, University of Cambridge and the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Previously, she worked as a Postdoc researcher at the Ibero-American Institute in Berlin, at the Institute of Social Studies in The Haag and at the Postgraduate Center in Development Sciences in La Paz, while providing counselling for civil society organizations. She was awarded her PhD in Political Science from the University of Vienna. During her time living in Bolivia, she initiated multiple collaborations between Latin America and Europe.
