I am a historian of Italy and the US with expertise in political theory and cultural studies. My research focuses on ideology, identity, and the intersection of politics and popular culture in twentieth-century Italy. For my upcoming book, Comic Fascism, I examined the representation of political ideas in popular comics in Italy during the Fascist era and the early Republic in order to identify continuities and ruptures in Italian culture and political discourse during this period of transition. I am particularly interested in the ways in which Fascist ideas persisted within political groups entangled with the Fascist regime, particularly the conservatives who had formerly given it support.
Beyond this project, my research has ranged from the use of comics to teach history, to the evolution of political ideas on the far-right, to contemporary geopolitical events.
