Veronica holds a PhD from Sciences Po Law School on ‘The Dynamics of Inclusion and Exclusion in Comparative Legal Thought’, where she explored the representations of non-European societies in European comparative legal scholarship (2015). During her PhD, she was a Visiting Scholar at Cornell Law School and the University of Turin. As a doctor, she was also a Visiting Professor at the University of Piemonte Orientale. Her areas of interest include EU migration and asylum law, EU law, international and European human rights law, critical theory, socio-legal studies, and comparative law.
