Nerea Montejo is a PhD candidate in Political Science and Sociology at Scuola Normale Superiore.

Their doctoral research “Insurgent Temporalities: Emotions, Narratives and Tactics towards an Emancipatory Strategy” examines how contemporary social movements confront and reorganise time in response to the multiple crises of contemporary capitalism. Drawing on a qualitative, multi-method research design, my project analyses how movements construct a strategic temporality through the interplay of emotions, narratives and tactics through the temporal lens as components of a broader political strategy aimed at challenging and reconfiguring the dominant capitalist temporal landscape.

Nerea has a bachelor’s in Law from the University of the Basque Country (Spain) and a Master’s degree in Transnational Governance and Human Rights from the Autonomous University of Madrid (Spain) and a Master’s degree in Analysis of Social Problems from the UNED (Spain). Their research interests include social movements, temporality and strategy.

Research interests: social movements, revolutions, temporality, strategy, and prefiguration
