Sean Paul Kelley has a BA in History from the University of Houston, ’93, an MA in International Affairs from St. Mary’s University, San Antonio, ’02, and is pursuing another Master’s in History from the University of Texas, San Antonio. His work has appeared anywhere from the Los Angeles Times Travel Section, to the Alternet.org, the San Antonio Express-News, and was a staff writer for the San Antonio Current.
Kelley’s focus is on the nexus of history and contemporary politics and where they meet internationally. He is a realist by training but an idealist on occasion. He studies power, above all, as it often touches the process, if it isn’t outright the entirety of the process. He spends his time between San Antonio, Texas and Diriá, Nicaragua, where he is completing his Master’s Thesis and beginning his first book on the continuity of history in Central Asia from the time of the Han to the current government of China’s “One Belt, One Road“.
