Vita:

José Gabriel Jiménez was born presumably with an XY chromosome-set (since it never was determined) less than half a century ago, and given the name JGJ.

He grew up, was socialized, lived, loved, worked, learned to cry tearless, and was politicized in southern Europe. He sees himself as egalitaristic, radicaldemocratic, anti-ableistic, heteronormacounter cisgender human.

He considers himself as part of the European, Atlantic, pre-historic cultural tradition, which evolved into a historical, pre-modern socio-cultural environment, with strong traces of formal modern socio-economic structures, repulsive of alarming economic tendencies on the jump to a postmodern neoliberal totalitarian global capitalism.

The interaction in, and cosmogonies of several Indo-European and non-Indo-European languages forged his perception, world view, and convictions. Strongly influenced and normalized by school education, the academic rationalistic attempt reinforced his critical approach, leading to his present pluralistic, non-cosmopolitan, self-determined social positions and preferences for the future of his socio-cultural-economic environment. May the interchange of experiences progress!
