Biography

Dr. Ka Nok LO (Carlos) joined the University of Macau in 2023 as Research Assistant Professor, UM Macao Fellow. He received Ph.D. in History from Macau University of Science and Technology, M.A. in History and B.A. from the University of Macau.

In the past seven years, he has been engaged in research on the Historical Demographic, Socio-economic, Cartographic, Cultural Heritage Education and Research, and Sino-Portuguese Diplomatic History of Macao, as well as the Family History of the Heung-San Region, using an interdisciplinary approach, and he has published more than ten journal articles and several conference papers. His doctoral thesis focused on how the Macao-Portuguese government used the population census to manage the population of Macao, thereby facilitating its colonial rule.

In his first monograph, A Village Named Passaleão Displaced: The North of Macao’s Border, he adopted the “Cross-Regional History” research perspective, revealing the close relationship between the Chinese in the Greater Bay Area and Macao, and even modern China, in modern times, through the study of a village closely related to Macao: the development of Beiling (Passaleão) Village in Zhuhai, from the 19th century to the present day.

In his recent research, he has utilized the research perspectives of “Cross-Regional History” and “Border Studies”, and attempted to use “Cross-Border Funerals of Chinese in Macao” as the theme of his research, and is currently preparing to start a new round of research. He intends to publish his second monograph in Second half of 2025, Where the Soul Goes: Colonial Power and the Contest for Space of Death in 19th-20th Century Macao.

In addition, Dr. Lo is currently conducting research on funerals and cemeteries, such as the relationship between urbanization and cemeteries, the financialization of burial plots, and burials and identity.
