Education / Bio

Dr. Gould completed his PhD at the University of British Columbia in 2009. His dissertation analyzes the material and ideological production of a rural land market in contemporary Guatemala. He comes to Concordia from Dartmouth College where he was a research fellow with the Geography Department and the Joan Sloan Dickey Center for International Understanding. Dr. Gould has broad research interests in critical development studies, political ecology, and economic geography. His current work examines how race, nature, and markets are produced through economic development policies.
