Associate Professor
gmcgilli@yorku.ca
McGillivray’s commitment to comparative
studies and micro-history combined with her gravitation toward early
XXth century developments—war, boom, and bust at the global level and
nationalism, populism, and revolution at the local level—motivated her
book, "Blazing Cane: Sugar Communities, Class, and State-Formation in
Cuba, 1868-1958" (Duke Univ, 2009) and her new research on
Brazil.
