Lorenzo Mauloni
Postdoctoral Fellow at the Polytechnic of Turin
Lorenzo Mauloni holds a PhD in Urban and Regional Development from the Politecnico di Torino. He is currently a research assistant at the Università di Torino within a national research project (PRIN 2022) entitled ‘The Border is No More, Long live the Border. De-materialization and re-materialization of internal borders in the European Union’. His research interests lie at the intersection between border and urban studies, focusing on the everyday urban experience of those bodies-on-the-move subjected to a regime of mobility. He has carried out ethnographic work in the city of Rome, focusing on the governance of migrants’ makeshift spatialities and on the everyday politics of people living on the streets. He is currently studying the relationship between mobility and infrastructure in the city of Ventimiglia, on the French-Italian border.
