About the Author
Christoph Kalter is a historian of Western Europe in its global connections. Currently Assistant Professor of Global History at Freie Universitat Berlin, he was awarded a Ph.D. in Modern History from that same university (2010). His dissertation on Third World solidarity and the radical Left in France has received the Walter-Markov-Prize granted by the European Network in Universal and Global History (ENIUGH). He has since held a fellowship at the University of Berkeley, California, and published on French and Portuguese decolonization in journals such as Geschichte und Gesellschaft and WerkstattGeschichte. He is currently working on his second book, which analyzes postcolonial migrations to Portugal.
