Carlotta Berti Ceroni serves as Full Professor and Director of the Department of Economic Sciences at the University of Bologna, operating under scientific-disciplinary sector ECON-01/A (Political Economy). Based at Piazza Scaravilli 2 in Bologna, she maintains active academic engagement with scheduled office hours including exam viewings through 2025.
Her research critically examines political economy through empirical analysis of voting behavior, emphasizing how immigration exposure, income stratification, and family structures shape electoral participation. Using precinct-level data, she investigates neighborhood heterogeneity effects and gendered turnout gaps, with recent work focusing on Northern Italy's socio-political dynamics. Her methodology bridges economics and political science to dissect democratic engagement mechanisms.
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals three dominant thematic clusters: (1) Immigration-voting nexus studies (2020-2024) exploring proximity effects and ethnic diversity; (2) Income-turnout relationships (2016-2022) analyzing regional disparities and resistance to change; (3) Political persistence frameworks (2009-2014) connecting institutional continuity to economic innovation. These threads consistently address heterogeneity, power structures, and democratic responsiveness across temporal scales.
