I am a cultural geographer with a strong interest in social and political theory.
Before taking up my current position, I have worked in a range of diverse international contexts. After having started my academic career in Italy, at the universities of Trieste and Venice, I was appointed as Professor of Geography at Newcastle University and at Royal Holloway, University of London. I then worked as Head of Department at Wageningen University, Netherlands, and at Macquarie University, Australia. My main research projects have focused on the relationship between spatial theory, biopolitics and modernity. I have also written extensively on philosopher Giorgio Agamben and camp political geographies.
My recent books are A Spatial Theory of the Camp (2025, with R.Carter-White), Appunti di Geografia(2022), Camps Revisited (2019, with I.Katz and D.Martin), After Heritage (2018, with H.Muzaini), Hitler’s Geographies (2016, with P.Giaccaria), Moroccan Dreams (2016, with L.Wagner), On Schmitt and Space(2015, with R.Rowan).
I am currently P.I. of an ERC Advanced Grant for the project: TheGAME: Counter-mapping informal refugee mobilities along the Balkan Route.
