Research interests

Trained as economic historian, I developed  research projects on the history of economic thought and the history of Italia Stock Exchanges (Regolazione e competizione, il Mulino 1995; Regolazione e Crisi, Egea, 2000). From the late Nineties I focused on the analysis of the transformation of cultural production systems at national and international level. In particular I developed a study on the transformation of the Italian operatic system (Mercanti dell'Opera, Il Saggiatore, 2011) and, more recently, a research on the global system of contemporary visual art (Cosmopolitan Canvases, Oxford University Press, 2015).
