GABALLO, Gaetano Email: Gaballo.Gaetano@eui.eu Tel.: +39-055-4685-684 Office nr. VF 28 Homepage: http://www.columbia.edu/~gg2389/ European University Institute Max Weber Programme Via delle Fontanelle, 10 I-50014 San Domenico Departmental affiliation: Economics Mentor: Ramon Marimon

My research interests are in Information and Learning with emphasis on expectational coordination problems in Macroeconomics. My work aims to assess the effect of perturbed knowledge of others' expectations. In particular, I'm developing the concept of Rational Exuberance, a coordination failure equilibrium in which expectational interdependence is self-fulfilled, and non-fundamental volatility arises. My preferred applications are inflation volatility and asset pricing. I am also interested in the trade-off between market competition and expectational stability and related policy recommendations. I expect to extend my research to the concrete case of the electricity market. After being a visiting Ph.D. student at the University of Cambridge for the academic year 2007-2008, and at the University of St. Andrews for the Fall Term 2008, I obtained my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Siena in September 2009. My dissertation, ‘Behavioural Uncertainty, Expectations and Learning in Macroeconomics’, was examined by Professors Nicola Dimitri (University of Siena), George W. Evans (University of Oregon) and Roger Guesnerie (College de France). In 2009 I received the Best Ph.D. Paper Award from the Society of Computational Economics. Over the academic year 2009-2010 I have been at Columbia University as Robert Solow Postdoc Fellow, under the guidance of Professor Michael Woodford. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Economic Dynamics.

I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania in May 2010 with a dissertation titled ‘Bankruptcy and Transaction Costs in General Financial Models’. As the title suggests, my research interests lie in the field of General Equilibrium, specifically the study of frictions in general financial models (GEI models). The specific frictions that I have considered to date have been bankruptcy and transaction costs and my research analyzes their effects on both price and allocation. My additional research interests lie in the field of Mathematical Economics and the applications of General Equilibrium theory in the field of Financial Macroeconomics. I have presented my research at numerous conferences both in the United States and in Europe. My Ph.D. dissertation committee consisted of Professors Felix Kubler, Dirk Krueger, and Andrew Postlewaite. Professors Kubler is now at the University of Zurich and the Swiss Finance Institute. During my doctoral studies, I spent one year as the ‘Assistant to the Professor’, to Professor Kubler in Zurich. I received my BSChE, graduating with honours (magna cum laude), from Washington University in May 2005, with additional majors in Economics and Mathematics. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Mathematics for Economists, General Equilibrium, Industrial Organization, Price Theory, and Law and Economics.

I obtained my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2010. My doctoral dissertation was supervised by Professor Roger Farmer. I also earned my M.A. from UCLA in 2007. Prior to my doctoral studies, I received my M.A. and B.A. degrees from the University of Tokyo. My fields of interest are macroeconomics, real estate economics, and labour economics. My dissertation studies markets with search friction for labour and houses. The main essay in my dissertation provides an equilibrium framework for the study of recent observations in the U.S. housing market, borrowing ideas from search and matching theory. Closing the model with self-fulfilling beliefs about the housing market, the model generates a housing price bubble as a consequence of multiple underlying steady-state equilibria. At UCLA, I served as a teaching assistant for undergraduate statistics and microeconomics courses. I also served as a teaching assistant for a macroeconomics course at the Graduate School of Public Policy, the University of Tokyo. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Statistics, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics.

I expect to complete my Ph.D. at the Institute for International Economic Studies at Stockholm University in the Autumn 2010. My research interests are in applied game theory and political economics. To date, my research has focused on theory, but in the future I would also like to work empirically. My research is mainly concerned with elections. In ‘The Swing Voters’ Blessing’, I show that lack of information about the quality of candidates for some voters can improve the functioning of democracy by increasing competition in the policy dimension. My other papers deal, for example, with the interaction of elections and lobbying and the compatibility of forward-looking and backward-looking voting. I obtained an M.Sc. in Economics from Tilburg University (2003) and the German degree of Diplomvolkswirt from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (2002). The title of my Ph.D. dissertation is ‘Essays in Political Economics’ and my principal advisor is Torsten Persson. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Political Economics.

It consists of three papers: ‘Model Validation in the DSGE Approach: A Survey’; a joint work with Agostino Consolo and Carlo A. Favero titled ‘On the Statistical Identification of DSGE Models’, published in The Journal of Econometrics, (Volume 150, Issue 1, May 2009, Pages 99-115); ‘DSGE Model Evaluation in a Bayesian Framework: an Assessment’. Among my working papers is a joint work with Marcella Nicolini on International Economics, ‘Does Trade Foster Institutions? An Empirical Assessment’. I have presented all these articles at international conferences such as EEA-ESEM 2008, ETSG 2008, SIE 2009 and RES 2010. My recent research interests address the statistical identification issue through a VARMA or Structural VARMA representation of a DSGE Model. In addition to this project, I am studying new information criteria for mixture models. Before starting the Max Weber Programme Fellowship, I will be working on a summer Internship at ECB in Frankfurt from June to September 2010.

I expect to complete my Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Rosemarie Nagel at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in the Autumn 2010. I obtained an M.Sc. in Economics and Management from UPF, having completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Ljubljana. My research interests are Experimental Economics, Behavioral Economics, Applied Auction Theory and Macroeconomics. I perform laboratory experiments on macroeconomic forecasting where I focus on the different approaches that people use to forecast, and the discrepancies between individual expectations and expectations of a group. My Ph.D. thesis tries to establish a number of stylized facts about the process of inflation expectation formation. It helps to demonstrate that individuals use several different methods for inflation forecasting and that they also switch between these methods depending on the state of the economy. During my graduates studies I gained experience as a teaching assistant to a Business Economics course and as a lecturer for the course Economic Organizations and Markets. In 2010 I have also had the opportunity to work as an analyst for the Bank of Slovenia.

My research interests are in the history of Granada and Spain in early-modern times, baroque civico-religious celebrations, representations of power and monarchy, the history of the patronages and in particular of Marial worship in the Hispanic context, the writing of history, tradition and festive texts (festive chronicles and sermons in particular). My Ph.D. (Paris, École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, 2008), titled, ‘Les fêtes civico-religieuses à Grenade, XVIème-XVIIème siècles’, focused on the argumentative system which appeared recurrently in public celebrations, perpetually unfolding the terms of conquest, loyalty, martyrdom and interrogations on the religious and ethnic origins of the city. I am revising my dissertation for publication and while in Florence I intend to work on comparative studies of civico-religious experiences in Europe in early-modern times.

My research interests range widely, from the history of justice and economics to gender and women’s history. Above all, I am deeply interested in the study of rural communities in early modern Europe. I will obtain my Ph.D. in History from Purdue University in the summer of 2010. The title of my Ph.D. dissertation is, “Women in Rural Society: Peasants, Patriarchy and Local Economy in Northeast France, 1659-1789”. My dissertation explores how female peasants had an extremely significant position both in the market economy and within their households and communities. Their role in the circulation of capital and property through the credit system and the land market contradicts the common assumption that early modern women had no place and say in the public sphere. As the justice records indicate, female peasants were also very active in the defense of their assets, social position and prerogatives. My findings undermine patriarchal ideology, indicative of a change in gender relations during the early modern period and contribute to a recent historiography analyzing the theory and practice of patriarchy. I will revise my dissertation for publication as a monograph during my stay at the EUI. My next project is tentatively titled, “Rural Communities and the Reformation: Confessionalisation, Social Discipline and Gender Relationships in Montbéliard, 1524-1793” and will explore the mechanisms of confessionalisation and acculturation in rural areas at the turn of the Reformation and forward. I hold an M.A. and a B.A. in History with distinction from Université de Strasbourg (France). Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Introduction to the Modern World, Introduction to the Middle Ages.

Trained in European intellectual history, my research involves the history of European Union Enlargement, moving beyond the negotiation process and looking at how Enlargement was perceived culturally and intellectually. Specifically, my work to date has focused on the early history of Turkish-EEC relations (1959-1980), examining the different ways Turks imagined Europe, and their place within it, through a broad debate on joining the Common Market.

My research focuses on comparative British and French eighteenth-century history, focussing on the cultural and social history of science. My Ph.D. dissertation, ‘Cultivating Commerce: Connoisseurship, Botany and the Plant Trade in London and Paris, c. 1760 – c. 1815’, situates late eighteenth-century botany within the contexts of contemporary commercial culture and wider cultural frameworks of knowledge formation. My post-doctoral project at the EUI will enlarge on this, investigating natural history as ‘connected history’ throughout the long eighteenth-century. I received my Ph.D. in History from the University of Warwick in 2010, and was then an Early Career Fellow at Warwick’s Institute of Advanced Study. Previous awards include an Entente Cordiale scholarship for study in Paris (2006-07), and an ESRC 1+3 award to fund my postgraduate study in the UK. In 2009-2010 I worked as ‘Network Facilitator’ for two international, interdisciplinary research networks. Both reflect the development of my current research interests. ‘Connected Histories / Connected Sociologies’ investigates the methodological challenges posed by interdisciplinary and cross-cultural research in a globalising world. ‘Commodities and Culture in the Colonial World’ studies the trans-national flows of goods and people, ideas and technologies, and the transformations of local cultures that these movements brought about, in the late nineteenth century. I have taught at Warwick on courses covering the period 1750-2000, with an emphasis on global history. In Spring 2010 I also taught an M.A. module, on representations of women in eighteenth-century Britain, at the University of York. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Global history (1750-2000), Women in eighteenth-century Britain.

My research interests cover the social, political and cultural history of Renaissance and early modern Europe, with particular reference to diplomacy and diplomatic practices. My current project examines ‘Our men in Rome: ambassadors and agents at the papal court, c. 1450-1530’. I am also interested in the ways early modern history is presented by the heritage industry and in popular media and literature. I completed a Ph.D. in History at Royal Holloway, University of London, in 2008, and have held fellowships at the Institute of Historical Research and the British School at Rome. My thesis, supervised by Professor Sandra Cavallo, was titled ‘Renaissance Diplomacy in Practice: the case of Gregorio Casali, England’s ambassador to the papal court, 1525-33’. I also have a first-class degree in Politics and Communication Studies, and worked for several years in politics and journalism before beginning doctoral research. I have published in the Bollettino Storico Piacentino and Renaissance Studies, and recently co-edited a journal special edition on Italian ambassadorial networks in early modern Europe (now with reviewers). I am completing a book that draws on my doctoral and postdoctoral research, and have been invited to contribute chapters to three forthcoming essay collections.

My general interest is the history and politics of the Middle East and North Africa, but more specifically I focus on the social and legal history of Libya in the late Ottoman and colonial period. At the EUI, I plan to continue to work on the registers of the Islamic, Ottoman and colonial courts of Tripoli. I will also introduce anthropometrics and use the median heights of Libyan detainees to measure the differential impact of colonization on the local population’s living standards. When I was a doctoral student at Oxford, I tutored courses on the Politics of the Middle East and offered an optional paper on Britain in the Middle East. In the future I would like to teach a course on Europe in the Middle East and a methodological course on New approaches to the Study of the Middle East. I graduated from Roma III University in Rome and received my M.A. in Near Eastern studies from Princeton University. Originally Italian, but raised in Indonesia, before returning to academia, I worked for Reuters in Indonesia and the Associated Press in Italy and the Middle East. I have published a number of articles on current-day Libya in the journal Arab Media and Society and Middle East Report and have published on Middle East current affairs in Limes, the Italian Review of Geopolitics.

My research interest is in the Society of Jesus in the late sixteenth century and the beginning of the seventeenth century, a theme that allows me to connect the three major fields in my academic background: Colonial Latin American History, Modern History and late Ming China. I obtained my Ph.D. in History from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, with a dissertation titled, ‘Between Faith and Reason. The Third Lima Council Catechism (1584) by José de Acosta SJ as main author of the Spanish text and the True Doctrine of the Lord of Heaven (Tianzhu shiyi) (1603) by Matteo Ricci SJ in China’. My aim at the EUI is to continue working on the Society of Jesus in China and colonial Latin America, especially Peru and Mexico, in the early modern world, delving into memory techniques or ars memoriae in the respective Jesuit missions. This responds to an ongoing impulse to further my knowledge in colonial Latin America and Ming China history. It also involves improving my Chinese for the translation of new primary sources, a task that is leading me, again, to China before starting the Max Weber Programme. In Buenos Aires I am currently teaching postgraduate courses for Ph.D. candidates in History and International Relations, publishing articles in peer-reviewed journals, while pondering all possible aspects involved in making a monograph out of my doctoral dissertation.

My field of research is early modern European history, with a particular emphasis on Germany and France. I research the religious history of seventeenth-century Germany, analyzing the theory and practice of confession in the Catholic southeast of the Holy Roman Empire. My research addresses questions of state-building, social disciplining, and the enforcement of the Counter-reformation on the ground. My Ph.D. thesis, written in both a German and a French version, is on the role of political friendship in seventeenth-century French court society. More generally, I am interested in the history of the nobility, of friendship and patronage, and in the application of social and cultural theory to early modern European history. I will receive my Ph.D. in History in the Autumn 2010 from the University of Freiburg im Breisgau and the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) in Paris; my thesis is jointly supervised by Professors Ronald G. Asch (Freiburg) and Jean Boutier (EHESS). I hold an M.A. from the University of Freiburg im Breisgau and a B.A. from the University of Paris IV (Sorbonne). I have several book chapters in print on various aspects of aristocratic life and court politics in early modern France. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Europe around 1700.

I expect to receive my doctorate in Modern European History from New York University in October 2010. My dissertation, which is titled, ‘From Stabilization to Crisis: Foreign Capital and Austrian finances 1918 – 1931’, was written under the supervision of Professor Mary Nolan. I received my B.A. in History and Economics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 2000. My thesis deals with the emergence of global financial institutions following the First World War. By looking at the interplay of banks, governments and the League of Nations from the time of hyperinflation in 1922 to Austria’s financial collapse in 1931, I trace the mechanisms by which foreign control was first instituted in Austria, how it was contested and preserved and why it ultimately failed to forestall the European financial crisis of 1931, which heralded the arrival of the Great Depression. At New York University, I held recitations for undergraduate courses in Modern European History, the History of the Middle East, India and the British Empire. Apart from Financial History, I am particularly interested in the History of Sports and Nationalism. At the EUI I intend to prepare my dissertation for publication, and to deepen my knowledge on the role of banks during the First World War. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Modern European History, the History of the Middle East, India and the British Empire.

My research is on trans-national migration, migrant groups and their relationship to social and political change in the twentieth century, with a special focus on South Asia. I explore the dialogic relationship between diverse strategies employed by migrants to negotiate change and displacement, and state-led governmentalities of sedentarisation, resettlement and rehabilitation. In 2009 I completed my doctoral thesis titled ‘Refugees and the Politics of Nation Building in India, 1947-71’, at the University of Cambridge. My thesis studied the rehabilitation of East Pakistani refugees in India as a prism through which state-society interaction in post-independence India becomes visible. Methodologically, I combine oral and archival sources, juxtaposing refugee reminiscences with government reports and surveys. As a Max Weber Fellow, I intend to revise my thesis for publication as a monograph. I have recently begun researching India’s position as a safe haven and clearing house for European refugees fleeing conflict during World War II and I hope to utilize my time in Florence to further develop this project. I am at present awaiting the publication of an article exploring refugee memory in the Andaman Islands in a collected volume titled Refugees and the End of Empire: Imperial Collapse and Forced Migration during the Twentieth Century, (forthcoming, Palgrave Macmillan). At the moment I am teaching ‘British Empire in India and Historical Methods’ at the International History Department of the London School of Economics as a Guest Teacher. I also work as a Guest Lecturer at the University of Cambridge, offering a series of lectures on Migration and Society in South Asia. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers British Empire in India, Historical Methods, Migration and Society in South Asia.

My research interests are European and world history from the late nineteenth century onward. I will complete my Ph.D. dissertation, entitled ‘Colonialism and the European movement in France and the Netherlands, 1925-1936’, at the University of Cambridge in autumn 2010. In my dissertation I examine how the imperial projects of France, the Netherlands and Britain influenced the thinking about European cooperation in the European movement in the interwar period. My dissertation shows that colonial possessions played an important role in conceptualisations of European cooperation: while empire led some to reject European cooperation, for others colonies formed an integral part of a European project. My teaching experience reflects my joint interest in European and world history, having taught in those fields at the University of Cambridge. As a Max Weber fellow I intend to continue to pursue this combination of European and world history by starting a transnational study of projects for Eurafrica. I have a M.A. degree in History and an LL.M. from the University of Leiden, the Netherlands. I have also studied at the University of Edinburgh and at University College London, as well as at Yale University as a Fulbright scholar.

I completed my doctorate in Modern European History in 2009 at Columbia University, where I wrote my dissertation, ‘Yugoslav Communism and the Power of Popular Music’, under the supervision of Prof. Mark Mazower. In examining the reception, surveillance and appropriation of Western popular music in Yugoslavia between 1945 and 1961, my dissertation argues that the mass consumption of it compelled the Communist Party of Yugoslavia to alter its strategies in cultural politics and foreign policy in order to appease popular desires and forge pan-Yugoslav bonds at home, as well as to fashion a liberal and modern image of itself abroad. At the European University Institute I am working with Prof. Stephen Smith on transforming my dissertation into a book. I received my B.A. in European Studies from the Australian National University in 2000 and was awarded its University Medal for my thesis on Croatian-Israeli relations, which I also worked on at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. As a Fulbright scholar I pursued an M.A. in East European Studies at Yale University, which I completed in 2002 with my thesis on the gay and lesbian history of Croatia. My research interests focus on the culture, history and politics of Yugoslavia and its successor states, and I have published several book chapters and journal articles on my topics of research. My teaching expertise lies in modern European history, especially East Central European history in the twentieth century. I have taught courses at Columbia University and the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Modern European history, East Central European History in the Twentieth Century.

In my view, judicial dialogue represents a privileged perspective for studying the relations among interacting legal orders, particularly in the multilevel and pluralistic structure of the European constitutional legal order. Starting from this assumption, I focused my studies on judicial dialogue as a way for constitutionalizing the European Union. Within the framework of the Max Weber Programme, I plan to explore the differences and similarities in the application of European Court of Human Rights and EU laws by national courts. I completed my Ph.D. at the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna (Pisa) with a thesis on the impact of European Welfare on the relationship between the EU's centre and its periphery. In Pisa I have also conducted postdoctoral research over two years, serving as STALS Senior Assistant Editor (www.stals.sssup.it) and teaching EU law and European Constitutional Law. Previously, as an Adjunct Professor (professore a contratto) at the University of Pisa, I taught seminars in EU Law, International Law on Development Cooperation, and European and Comparative Constitutional Law. I have also held the position of visiting researcher at the University of Barcelona, Université de Montréal, University of Geneva, King’s College, London, and the Tilburg Institute of Comparative and Transnational Law (TICOM), where I was also invited to take part in conferences and hold several seminars.

My research interests are Family Law, Law and Society, Gender and Law, Law and Emotions, Critical Realism, and Governmentality. My research agenda investigates how law influences, shapes and coerces parental behaviour. Specifically, I focus on three themes. First, what are the law’s implicit assumptions and “common sense” understandings about parents’ obligations to children and about the nature of the parent-child dyad. I place these assumptions in legal, cultural and historical contexts in order to challenge their seeming obviousness. Second, how does the law use people’s status as parents to govern them. Particularly, what kind of self do legal regulation and legal practices encourage or intimidate parents into developing. Third, what potential groups are likely to be disadvantaged by regulation resulting from the law’s hidden assumptions about parents and parenting. I am a doctoral candidate at Columbia Law School and expect to complete my Ph.D. in September 2010. My doctoral dissertation, ‘The Regulation of Parenthood’, is concerned with legal efforts to dictate not only how parents raise their children, but how parents live their own lives. I previously earned an LL.M. from Columbia University (with honors), and an M.A. in Medieval History (summa cum laude) and an LL.B. (magna cum laude) from Tel Aviv University. Selected Publications

I earned a Ph.D. and an M.A. in Philosophy, in 2010, and a J.D., with honours, in 2008, from the University of Texas at Austin; an M.A. in Philosophy from Virginia Tech University; and a B.A., summa cum laude, in Philosophy from the University of Southern Mississippi. My research interests are in general jurisprudence, in particular theories of practical authority, as well as related issues in agency and tort law. I also have interests in maritime law, and in ancient Greek legal philosophy. In my dissertation, ‘Essays on Authority’, I argue that leading philosophical theories of authority do not adequately account for how the exercise of authority fits into obedient subjects’ self-understanding. I draw on social psychological research concerning the capacity people display in identifying the actions they perform, and show the ways in which authorities interfere with the exercise of this capacity. I argue that the role authorities play in this regard constitutes an additional justificatory burden. Future projects include exploring how my account of authority fits into the most plausible theory of law, and the role of testimony in our knowledge of the law. My paper ‘Legal Positivism and the Rule of Law’ was the prize winner of the 2008 international essay competition sponsored by the Australian Society of Legal Philosophy; it was subsequently published in 2009 in the Australian Journal of Legal Philosophy. I also co-authored (with Brian Leiter) a forthcoming entry on ‘Legal Positivism’ in Oxford Bibliographies Online for Oxford University Press.

My research is focused on economic regulation, and in particular on the intersection of competition law, contracts and intellectual property. Specifically, I have studied the response of companies and regulators to increased market dynamism that results in vertical disintegration of production towards looser networks of independent collaborators. My LL.M and J.S.D. are from Columbia University, where my doctoral dissertation, titled 'The Turn to Governance in Antitrust Law and Policy', was supervised by Professor Charles F. Sabel. The dissertation examines the trend away from the elaboration of doctrinal rules towards the use of governance mechanisms in antitrust interventions, in the US, the EU, as well as internationally. My current research focuses on the design of remedial mechanisms in competition interventions, as well as multi-level instruments for cooperation between competition agencies, that can attenuate the standard shortcomings of principal-agent governance models. Before my studies at Columbia, I obtained an undergraduate degree in Economics and a Law degree from the University of Sydney in Australia, where I also taught mathematical economics and game theory as an Associate Lecturer in Economics. After Law School I worked as a Law Associate (clerk) to Justice Michael D. Kirby of the High Court of Australia. Expertise for Teaching and Mentoring of Ph.D. Researchers Game Theory.

My research aims to develop interdisciplinary studies in the cognitive and social fields. I am interested in explaining the emergence, evolution and innovation of macro social phenomena in social systems, such as social norms and enforcement mechanisms (e.g. punishment and sanction), by integrating the research findings in cognitive science into a set of operational models. I make use of Agent Based Social Simulations in order to test these models. In 2007, I received my Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Rome «La Sapienza», with a Ph.D. dissertation titled ‘Linguistic Universals and Grammar Categories: the Parts of Speech Theory’. From 2007 to 2010 I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Laboratory of Agent Based Social Simulation at the Institute of Cognitive Sciences and Technologies of the Italian National Research Council (ISTC-CNR).

I am a political theorist with research interests that span the history of political thought, continental political theory, liberalism and existentialism. I am also particularly interested in how certain political experiences defy state boundaries, so my work frequently crosses over into research on international relations, especially international ethics, international political theory, and human rights. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in December 2008. My dissertation inquires into the political significance of Karl Jaspers’s concept of boundary situation, and specifically the significance of the situations of suffering, struggle, and guilt. In the dissertation, I argue that these situations disorient us from our familiar ways, and may reorient us to creatively re-crafting personal and political relationships by way of communication and action with others. During my time at the EUI I will turn the dissertation into a book manuscript, and I intend to bring Jaspers’s insights to bear more explicitly on global politics. In particular, I will study how situations he considers inescapable and defining of the human condition (suffering, struggle, guilt) are mediated differently across cultural universes. I have been teaching classes in political theory, international relations, and philosophy at the University of Minnesota, Ohio State University, and Columbia University. I hold a B.A. (laurea) in Philosophy from the University of Milan, where I wrote a thesis on Judith Shklar and the liberalism of fear.

A jurist and sociologist by training, I have pursued legal studies in France (Université Paris X-Nanterre), where I have also practiced juridical functions at the Conseil d’État, as well as at the Ministry of Culture and Communications. Upon completing these studies, I moved to Canada and obtained an M.A. in international law and international relations from the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). I will defend my Ph.D. thesis in Fall 2010 at the Department of Sociology at UQAM. The title of my Ph.D. dissertation is ‘Neutrality and Freedom of Religion: The Regulation of Religious Diversity in Quebec and in France’. My advisors are Professors Micheline Milot (UQAM) and Jean Baubérot (EPHE/Sorbonne). My Ph.D. thesis proposes a comparative study of secularism in Quebec and France. Based on the analysis of juridical data, my thesis pursues a double objective. On the one hand, it involves studying the philosophical grounds that legitimate policy decision-making, as well as the juridical reality of secularism. On the other hand, my research evaluates the effects of plurality on forms of neutrality detectable in political governance on the articulation of other fundamental principles of secularism. In so doing, my doctoral work focuses on the coexistence of different models of secularism in a same society according to the nature and the moment of the social fact that the State must treat. My initial research results have led to several scientific publications in Sociologie et sociétés, Social Compass-International Review of Sociology of Religion, Diversité urbaine, Globe-Revue internationale d’études québécoises, and Journal and Religion and Culture. I have co-edited a special issue of the journal Diversité urbaine.

I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Athens. I also hold an M.A. in European Studies and International Relations from the University of Athens and an M.A. in Political Economy from the University of Essex. I completed my Ph.D. in European Politics at the University of Essex, with a thesis titled ‘European integration and electoral democracy: How the EU constrains party competition in the member states’. In this I examined the impact of EU decision-making on parties’ agendas at national elections and whether the policy choices on offer for voters narrows as more decisions are taken at the EU level. I have disseminated findings from research at conferences and published an article in European Union Politics. Currently I am working on revising a second paper, entitled ‘European Integration and Party Policy Convergence’. I am also working on a paper that assesses how the EU constrains parties’ ideological positions based on their affiliation to party families. I am working on a collaborative paper entitled 'Public attitudes towards the constitutionalisation of the EU: evidence from Britain'. A further collaborative project, titled ‘The paradox of nationalism: a comparative analysis of left and right wing party discourse in the 2009 EP elections’, is to be presented at the APSA Conference in September 2010. I was a Fellow in European Politics at the Department of Government at the London School of Economics and Political Science from October 2009 to September 2010. I delivered lectures on a range of topics for team-taught courses. In addition, I taught postgraduate courses on political behaviour, comparative European politics and research methods. Prior to that, I taught in the Department of Government at the University of Essex, contributing to courses on West European politics and international relations.

I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science from Sciences Po Paris (2009). My dissertation was titled: ‘The shadow of consensus. The use of qualified majority voting in the Council of the European Union.’ In the Council, when qualified majority voting is the legal rule, ministers seldom actually vote. Instead, according to most studies, they decide “by consensus”. In this context, my dissertation addresses two questions: Why do ministers so rarely vote? What does the ambiguous notion of consensus actually refer to? On the basis of interviews with Council members, I attempted to show that the principle of qualified majority is in fact the driving factor in the decision-making process. Yet the combination of qualified majority, asymmetric information and social norms discourages the minority from expressing its disagreement at several stages of decision-making. Consequently, most decisions seem to be made without opposition. This method enhances the legislative productivity of the Council but it raises problems of democratic accountability. I am a Research Assistant for Jon Elster at the Collège de France. I studied philosophy (M.A. in 2001, agrégée in 2002) and I am an alumna of the École Normale Supérieure (Paris, 1999-2004) and the Panthéon-Sorbonne University.

Prior to joining the European University Institute as a Max Weber Fellow I was a graduate student and Assistant Instructor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin. There I completed my doctoral dissertation, ‘Why the Iranian Revolution was Non-violent: Internationalized Social Change and the Iron Cage of Liberalism’, under the guidance of Maya Charrad and Les Kurtz. For the past two years I have been teaching a self-designed course titled, ‘Revolution, Power, & Non-violence’ at UT. I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Charleston with a B.A. in Philosophy and English, and earned an M.A. in Rhetoric from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. My research interests include revolutions, social movements, non-violent social change, human rights, comparative history and politics, and general issues of peace and conflict. To date, my research has focused specifically on revolutionary social movements that intentionally eschew violent tactics of struggle in favour of non-violent methods, such as strikes, demonstrations, and boycotts. In particular, I am interested in understanding why the nature of revolutions has changed so drastically, beginning in the late 1970s, and how non-violent challengers have been able to remove seemingly powerful dictators. I have argued that this development is a consequence of structural factors on the international level combined with strategic decisions made by revolutionary leaders and participants.

My research interests are in contemporary political philosophy, and particularly in the concept of individual freedom: its meaning, value, and measurement. My Ph.D. thesis, ‘Freedom, Persons, and External Resources’ (which I will submit shortly to the University of Oxford), is an attempt to answer the question of which distribution of property rights is most congenial to individual freedom. It consists of a conceptual analysis of the concept of individual freedom, of what it means to be free (and unfree) to do a specific thing, and of how to measure how much overall individual freedom a person has in virtue of the specific freedoms (and unfreedoms) she possesses; this is then applied to the question of which distribution of property rights within a given society would maximize its members’ individual freedom. During my time as a Max Weber Fellow I shall continue to work on these issues. I hold a B.A. in Political Science & Philosophy and an M.A. in Philosophy, both from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. During my M.A. studies in Jerusalem I was also working as a researcher for an Israeli Human Rights organization: B’Tselem – The Israeli Information Centre for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories. While in Oxford I have been teaching contemporary political philosophy for the Oxford Programme for Undergraduate Studies.

My research centres on international migration, culture, ethnicity, nationalism, and globalization. While at the EUI I will begin a project offering the first systematic sociological study of the integration of highly skilled western workers into the urban environments of Tokyo, Seoul, and Shanghai. This ethnographic investigation seeks to understand how belonging is negotiated and urban identities are reconfigured in the everyday lives of these global movers by focusing on how they interact with the distinctive properties of their urban contexts and how their surrounding urban landscapes are re-shaped around them. Prior to coming to the EUI, I was a Robert and Lisa Sainsbury Postdoctoral Fellow with the Sainsbury Institute (SOAS, University of London; University of East Anglia) where I completed a book manuscript, Making Tea, Making Japanese, based on my dissertation work in sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles. The book examines the relationship between cultural practices and national meanings by investigating how the tea ceremony is produced and sustained as distinctively Japanese. I am also involved in a collaborative project with Professors John Skrentny and David Fitzgerald at the University of California, San Diego that explores global variations in family reunification policies. While a teaching assistant at UCLA I taught classes on globalization, collective behaviour, and classical and contemporary social theory. I have published articles on migration policy (International Migration Review, 2008) and on migrants’ cultural practices (Ethnic and Racial Studies, 2006).

My general research interests include political behaviour and party politics. In my dissertation I explore the determinants of attitudes towards the European Union in the new Member States, with a particular focus on the interplay between domestic and EU-level factors. I am also interested in the role of political corruption in shaping public attitudes, the relationship between populism, Euroscepticism and extreme-right politics, and the Europeanization of parties and party systems. I am currently a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Pittsburgh, and I expect to complete my Ph.D. in August 2010. While in graduate school, I have also independently taught a number of courses in comparative politics and served as a teaching assistant for others. I have also taught an upper-level course at the California University of Pennsylvania. Prior to my Ph.D., I earned a B.A. in International Relations from Mount Holyoke College.
