Current research

My project concentrates on the relationship between citizenship and property rights in the interwar period, focusing on the case of the German ex-enemy aliens during the Twenties. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach based on history and legal history, my aim is to highlight how the economic persecution after the First World War redefined the national belonging of the former enemy citizens both in western European countries (United Kingdom, France, Italy, Belgium) and the United States.
