My name is Oscar Mario Miranda Villanueva.

I hold a PhD in Humanistic Studies (DEH) with an emphasis on Communication and Cultural Studies, degree provided by Tecnologico de Monterrey, campus Monterrey. I was a visiting graduate student at the University of Tampere, Finland, and a doctoral researcher at the Tampere Research Group for Cultural and Political Sociology (TCuPS) for a year and a half.

I have published in indexed journals both local and international, and have a book chapter in a book published by the Spanish publishing house: Plaza y Valdés.
