Introduction
My current research interests lie in two main fields:
1. Networks of Solidarity Economy. My interest is to start from my previous research and bring the study further, analyzing more in depth the evolution of the networks;
2. Rural Development. I am particularly interested in investigating the role played by organic farmers in the processes of food relocalization.
