Davide Rodogno is a Swiss and Italian historian of humanitarianism, human rights and international organisations since the nineteenth century. He also writes on authoritarian and totalitarian regimes.[1]
Rodogno is a professor of international history at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, in Geneva, Switzerland. He was previously an RCUK Academic Fellow at the University of St Andrews and a research fellow at the London School of Economics.[2][3]
In 2005, he received the Italian literary award, Feudo Di Maida Prize (in full, Premio Letterario Internazionale Feudo Di Maida), for his book Il nuovo ordine mediterraneo (published by Bollati Boringhieri, Turin).[4] The book, a history of Italy's fascist imperial ambitions in the 1940s, was re-published by Cambridge University Press under the title Fascism’s European Empire (Cambridge University Press, 2006). It has been described as an "illuminating appraisal of Fascist Italy's ambitions" and "pioneering".[5][6][7]
Rodogno holds a PhD from the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies and University of Geneva.[8]
