Biography
Born in 1957, he graduated in Law in Florence in 1981, debating a thesis in History of Italian Law. In 1987 he obtained a Ph.D. in History of Modern Legal Thought with a thesis on one of the most important Italian jurists of the seventeenth century, Piacentino Gian Domenico Romagnosi. In the years 1986-1990 he teaches as Associate Professor History of Italian Law at the Faculty of Jurisprudence in Trento; then wins a first-line competition in History of Political Institutions at the Faculty of Political Science in Genoa, where he remained until 1994. Since 1995 teaches the same subject in Florence at the Faculty of Political Science Cesare Alfieri.
Research Interest
His study interests essentially relate to the administrative and constitutional history of modern and contemporary age. After dealing with the center-periphery relationship in the pre-Union states, with particular reference to the Tuscan experience, and the origins of administrative law in Europe (the theme, which he dedicated in 2001 to a volume written in collaboration with Bernardo Sordi), is currently working to a history of Italian constitutionalism during the Risorgimento period, to which he has already reserved several studies.
