Daniel Kressel is a research fellow at the Koch Historical Centre at the University of Oxford and specializes in the history of transnational right-wing ideologies and networks in Latin America, Spain, and Israel. Throughout his career, and more specifically in his books Hispanic Technocracy: From Fascism to Catholic Authoritarianism in Spain, Argentina, and Chile (Cambridge UP, 2025) and José Antonio Primo de Rivera in Latin America: The Pursuit of a Fascist Usable Past during the Cold War (1939-1989) (Routledge, 2025), he has explored how inter-war fascist and traditionalist ideologies have changed during the Cold War, and how they were reorganized and reiterated in neo-fascist and post-fascist formats.
