Tore C. Olsson is an American historian and academic who is known for his expertise on the historical connections between the United States and other regions, particularly Latin America. His work often explores the intersections of agriculture, rural life, and international development, delving into how policies and ideas have circulated globally and impacted societies. As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, Olsson is an associate professor of history at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He published a book titled "Agrarian Crossings: Reformers and the Remaking of the US and Mexican Countryside" which examines how transformations in rural areas of the United States and Mexico have influenced one another, particularly during the mid-20th century. His research contributes to an understanding of the transnational dimensions of agrarian politics and social reform movements.
