Manuel Alejandro Guerrero

I am a political communication scholar with a B.A in International Relations from El Colegio de México, an M.Phil. from the University of Cambridge, and a Ph.D. from the European University Institute. I am full-time Professor at the Universidad Iberoamericana, where I have directed the Communication Department and the radio station Ibero 90.9 FM. For 17 years, I have coordinated academically the Professional Electoral Service at Mexico’s National Electoral Institute. I am a member of the Mexican Academy of Sciences, the U.N. Academic Council, and the president of the UNESCO ORBICOM network. I also serve on several national and international editorial boards.

My research focuses on the following thematic areas: a) media, democracy, b) civic attitudes in digital spaces, c) polarization and disinformation, and d) the political, geopolitical, and regulatory impact of AI.

I have been a visiting professor in the U.S., China, Brazil, France, Italy, and Austria, and recently collaborated with the American University's PERIL Lab on methods to counter polarization and disinformation. I'm the author of 21 books and more than 64 articles and book chapters with international publishers, and I write biweekly for El Sol de México, Mexican nation-wide newspaper, on communication, journalism, media literacy, disinformation, and AI.
