Two are my principal research interests. On one hand there is the
privatization issue in Italy, during the '80 and the '90. Focus is
on public debate and on the connection between frames evoked in
public debate and frames prevailing in laws and official papers
about privatizations. Methods is quali-quantitative, approach is
inductive, theoretical background is neoinstitutional theory.
Started in 2012, these stream of research lead to three working
papers.
On the other hand there is the interest toward cultural and
creative industries, especially book publishing industries. I'm
interested in the processes of selection, admission and
gatekeeping. Method is qualitative, approach is inductive,
theoretical background is mainly sociological and owns a lot to
Pierre Bourdieu's theory. These stream of research lead to several
working papers plus three pieces of work that are going to be
published in 2013.
