Hi, I am Simone, assistant research professor at the Institute of Social Sciences of the University of Lisbon. I am a geographer – at least so my contract says – with interests that span across critical urban studies, political economy, spatial planning. I am interested in the global and multi-scalar nature of urbanization, and especially in fields like housing (financialization, policies, politics), security and violence, urban imaginaries, with special emphasis on the trajectories of semi-peripheral regions North and South – I have done empirical research in Southern Europe (Italy and Portugal), the South of the USA and in Argentina.

This is not a well-organized website. It has for long time been my personal blog – mostly in Italian, and on topics like politics, photography and cities. More recently, I have used it as a scattered repository for some of my writings, projects and stuff.

For a more complete overview of my academic cv, please see my institutional website or my Ciência Vitae (the latter is pretty complete, but not the most friendly of profiles). My publications are available (in most cases in OA versions) on the repository of ULisboa, or my Scholar, Academia and ResearchGate profiles.

You can also find me on Twitter, where I am not necessarily the standard academic scholar, however.
