Dr. Egas Bernard Bender De Moniz Bandeira
Egas Moniz Bandeira is a global historian specializing in political, legal, and intellectual history, with particular attention to modern East Asia. He concluded his PhD as part of the cross-national doctoral course of the University of Heidelberg (Germany) and Tohoku University (Japan) with a dissertation titled ‘China and the Globalisation of Constitutions: Constitutional Thought in the Qing Empire (1838–1911),’ in which he argued that the late Qing constitutional movement was part of a global movement co-producing the fundamental elements of modern statehood. Before joining FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, he worked at the Centre for East Asian Studies of the Autonomous University of Madrid and at the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory. In 2024, he was interim professor of intellectual history at the University of Heidelberg, and he was also an affiliated researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory in 2024 and 2025.
Currently, Egas is advancing his research agenda through two major book projects. He is working on a monograph on the late Qing constitutional movement from a global perspective, and he is the lead editor of the volume Histories of Constitutionalism: Global Exchanges of Ideas and Entanglements, c. 1850s–1940s (under contract with Cambridge University Press), which explores how constitutions became indispensable elements of modern states through 20 case studies from across the world.
Together with Marc Matten, Egas has edited an anthology of translated Chinese writings on global history, Globalgeschichten aus China: Aktuelle Debatten in der Volksrepublik [Global histories from China: Current debates in the PRC]. Together with Ivan Sablin, he is co-editor of a trilogy exploring the emergence of modern forms of government: Planting Parliaments in Eurasia, 1850–1950: Concepts, Practices, and Mythologies (Routledge, 2021); Parties as Governments in Eurasia, 1913–1991: Nationalism, Socialism, and Development (Routledge, 2022); and From Empire to Federation in Eurasia: Ideas and Practices of Diversity Management (Routledge, 2026). Egas has published in journals such as the Journal of Transcultural Studies, Global Intellectual History, the Journal of Eurasian Studies, and the International History Review, and has been invited to lecture, among others, in Brazil, China, France, Germany, Japan, and Poland. Currently, he serves as the vice president of the German Association for Chinese Studies (DVCS).
