Olivia Arigho-Stiles
I am an interdisciplinary researcher of Indigenous histories and the rural world in 20th century Bolivia. I am a Research Associate on the British Academy funded Rethinking Values of the Anthropocene project at the University of Bristol, UK.
I was previously a Lecturer in Latin American Studies at the University of Essex, UK and a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Indigenous Ecologies and Environmental Crisis research project at University College London. I hold a PhD in Sociology from the University of Essex. My research covers environmental histories and Indigenous-campesino politics in highland Bolivia, 1920-1990. My PhD project traces the history of ecological thought within Indigenous movements in the altiplano. My new postdoctoral work explores histories of highland Indigenous settlers to the Bolivian lowlands 1950-1990, focusing on the conflictual entanglements between the human and more-than-human worlds.
I have a BA in History from the University of Oxford and an MA in Latin American Studies from University College London (UCL).
