I am an Assistant Professor of Legal History at Bocconi University, a position I have held since September 2025. I was born (1990) and raised in Florence, Italy, where I also obtained my Law Degree (JD equivalent) from the University of Florence in 2016 and was admitted to the Bar in 2018. I hold a PhD in Legal History from the University of Macerata (2020). In recent years, I have been a Robbins Collection Visiting Fellow at UC Berkeley School of Law (2018), a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Florence (2020–2021), a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Ferrara (2022–2025), and an Academic Fellow at Bocconi University (2024–2025). In 2023, I was awarded the National Scientific Habilitation (ASN) as Associate Professor in Medieval and Modern Legal History (12/H2 – GIUR-16/A). My research interests focus primarily on Italian and American jurisprudence concerning law and economics, market regulation, welfare, substantive rights, and constitutional transformations in the 19th and 20th centuries. My work often adopts a comparative legal history approach, particularly with respect to Fascist corporatism and the New Deal. My book La “democrazia economica” americana won the 2024 Bartolo da Sassoferrato Prize for Legal and Political-Social Sciences.
