RESEARCH INTERESTS
My research activity focuses on general and applied ethics. As for the former, my fields of interest are philosophy of relation and the theory of care; the latter include global bioethics and the philosophy of medicine, with special regard for medical bioethics (i.e., the problem of the end of life). A constant throughout my research activity has been the philosophy of Nietzsche, in particular, his last works and the dynamics behind the rise and fall of civilizations.
