About
Mirta Roncagalli is a doctoral candidate in Hispanic Studies at UBC, where she also serves as Graduate Ambassador and Departmental Graduate Representative.
Mirta’s research explores the connections between politics and ethics, specifically within the 21st-century Spanish essay. Through the lens of Posthumanism, her project aims to understand how contemporary philosophers challenge the neoliberal system, question the whole idea of a democratic society, and advocate for its regeneration.
