Rossana Reguillo is a Mexican scholar noted for her analyses of youth, the city as social space, “fear” as a social construct, and the inter-relationship of communication, culture and politics in Latin America. She is currently Professor at ITESO University,[1] Western Institute of Technology and Higher Education,[2] and was visiting Professor at New York University.[3] Rossana Reguillo is the daughter of a chiapaneca woman and a republican, communist madrileño who claimed refugee status in Mexico. She is also married to the Mexican cartoonist Jabez.[4]

Reguillo has accomplished significant academic work positioning her as a prominent social scientist in Latin America.[5] Her academic rigor and passion have led her to both analyze social phenomena as well as promote social change. For example, her academic analyses of the 1992 drainage explosions in Guadalajara[6][7] and the participation of youth in the Mara Salvatrucha[8] were not based on an aseptic scientific attitude, which understands research subjects as individuals from which to obtain data in order to elaborate conclusions.[9] Instead, she has constantly assumed a position (personality) where her roles both as a social researcher and also as a citizen have allowed her to frame a nuanced understanding of social issues leading to social change.[citation needed]

Work

Reguillo is a widely cited scholar in Latin America.[5] She has extensively researched such issues as a youth, the city as social space, “fear” as a social construct, and the inter-relationships between communication, culture and politics.[10] Reguillo has analyzed such topics arising from the fields of Communication, Social Anthropology and Cultural Studies, authoring 142 articles, 71 book chapters and seven books, and has also edited/coordinated seven books. Her ample experience in research and teaching has positioned her as a significant academic reference in Latin American scholarship, for which she has been offered diverse visiting positions and visiting chairs in different universities:

She has also been a permanent member of the Mexican Academy of Sciences since 2002,[15] and she has achieved the highest possible level (level III)[16] in the National Researchers System of the National Council of Science and Technology of Mexico. She has also been awarded the 1995 Best Research in Social Anthropology Fray Bernardino de Sahagun Award by the National Institute of Anthropology and History (Mexico), the 1996 Ibero-American Award for Municipal and Regional Investigation by the Ibero-American Capital Cities Union, Spain, and the 2010 Advertising and Women Award for Communication Trajectory by the Municipal Institute of Women and the National Council for the Prevention of Discrimination.[17] She has also been appointed as Advisory Member for Latin America for the Social Science Research Council (2002, USA).[18] In addition, she has been appointed as peer evaluator for the National Council of Science and Technology projects (2000-2004, 2006-2009), judge of the Alejandrina Gaitán de Mondragón Award for the social sciences and humanities areas (2002, 2008, 2009), and member of the international jury for the Essay Contest of the Central University of Venezuela.
