I am a social anthropologist (PhD in Human Sciences with specialization in Anthropology, University of Ferrara 2016; Master's Degree in Anthropological Sciences, University of Milan Bicocca 2009). I have carried out ethnographic research in Italy and Tunisia working both within the academy and for NGOs, associations, and social cooperatives. I have published books, scientific articles, and chapters in collective volumes. Over the years, I have also worked as a social worker in the reception system for asylum seekers and as a specialist educator on minors; I have also dealt with these issues as a teacher and trainer. My areas of interest concern the state and its daily formation, social and territorial marginality, power, and asylum migration. I am also interested in the way power relations unfold in space and contribute to its production.
