I am an an Associate Professor of Economics at Aalborg University Business School. I hold a PhD in Economics at Trento University, a MSc in Economic Sciences at University of Roma Tre, a second international MSc in Cooperation and Development at IUSS and an undergraduate degree in Business Economics from the University of Perugia.
I have a broad international experience having lived almost 5 years between Argentina and Peru, 8 years in the UK, several months in the Netherlands and in Chile, beyond Italy (my home country). I previously lectured at Northumbria University (UK), Goldsmiths University (UK), Universidad de Piura (Peru) and Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola, (Peru). Beyond my teaching experience in different institutions in the UK, I worked as an economist in both international and governmental institutions such as the FAO-Food and Agricultural Organization (United Nations), Peru and the Department of Health, UK.
I am a Macro-Development Economist with a pluralist perspective, focusing on financial, monetary, and structural dynamics, particularly within and from developing and emerging economies perspectives. I have published in several highly regarded journals such as the Cambridge Journal of Economics, Development and Change, the Journal of Post Keynesian Economics, Review of Political Economy, Research in International Business and Finance, Resources Policy, etc. I actively engage with policy making in developing and emerging economies and have presented my research at institutions like the Central Bank of Peru, the Ministry of Economics and Finance of Peru, the Central Bank of Kazakhstan, the Economic Research Institute of Kazakhstan and at UNCTAD (United Nations). I am a member of several academic organizations like the Post Keynesian Economic Society (PKES), the International Initiative for the Promotion of Political Economy (IIPPE), and the Reteaching Economics Network.
Research Interests:
My research focuses the monetary, financial, and macroeconomic policies in developing and emerging economies. I analyses the dynamics of cross-border capital flows and economic structures and trade dynamics, and how these processes shape macroeconomic and monetary policies. I am interested in the hierarchical structure of the international monetary, financial and trade systems, investigating its implications for development finance, external vulnerability, macroeconomic policy, and structural changes in these economies.
Currently, I am investigating development finance, currency internationalization and financialization trends in these regions. My approach incorporates pluralist economic theories, mainly Post Keynesian theory and Latin American Structuralism.Furthermore, I aim to foster interdisciplinary connections, particularly with fields like international political economy and economic geography.
