As a historian, I am fascinated by how different groups of people get along (or fail to get along) with other groups of people. From an initial interest during high school in medieval history — leading to a published article in the Concord Review on Spanish ethnoreligious history — I became interested at Columbia in modern U.S. Foreign relations. I now study the "Transnational Nationalist Right:" U.S. actors who sought to achieve a more conservative, anti-communist, isolationist, and nationalist United States (and World), partially through cooperation with other anti-communist Nationalists throughout the world. I have published and presented on such themes as isolationism, anti-fascist/foreign boycotts, fascist-sympathetic journalism, and the role of mysticism in U.S. philo-fascism. Please see the "Publications" tab for more information. I can also be contacted at bg2572@columbia.edu for any requests for historical consulting or academic collaboration.
