I am associate professor (professor agregat), at the Economic History department of the University of Barcelona (UB). I have also been visiting researcher at the University of Kent (2007), the University of California-Davis (2009) and the London School of Economics (2016).
My research interests are the economic history of the welfare state and redistribution, and more generally the role of the state in the economy.
I am currently the Coordinator of the PhD Program in Economic History at UB.
