Biography
Deni Alfaro Rubbo is Professor at the State University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UEMS) and at the Graduate Program in Sociology at the Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD), Brazil, and PhD from the Graduate Program in Sociology at the University of São Paulo (USP). He works in the field of sociology, with an emphasis on the sociology of intellectuals and culture, history and Brazilian and Latin American political–social thought.

"This is a highly welcome contribution to the international sociological literature. Readers of the English language can now have access to a set of articles on the work of one of the best and most influential Latin American social scientists of the 20th century. Quijano’s thought is central to the development of the (de)coloniality turn and to a sophisticated understanding of capitalism, power and modernity. Congratulations to the editor, Denis Alfaro Rubbo, and to all the contributors for this crucial and necessary volume."
