Research interests
I am a public lawyer, with research interests spanning both administrative law, European Union law and global administrative law, with specific focus on three areas: the comparative law of administrative procedures, the general principles of law, and budgetary issues.
In the last six years, my research work has focused on the comparative research concerning “The Common Core of European Administrative Laws”, which combines both diachronic and synchronic comparison, with specific regard to various issues related to administrative procedures, including the fundamental requirements of due process, how they impinge on the administrative limitations of private property, and the judicial standards of procedural fairness and propriety.
A related, but distinct, research project, which is being elaborated with prof. Alec Stone Sweet and prof. Mads Andenas, concerns the development of general principles across various global regulatory regimes
