Charlotte Moge

Charlotte Moge is a Lecturer in Italian Studies at Jean Moulin University Lyon 3, specializing in the history of mafias and anti-mafia movements, contemporary Italian history, and media studies. Her research bridges political, social, and cultural dimensions, focusing on memory practices, public history, and the intersection of organized crime with media representation. She actively participates in academic and public discourse through conferences, media appearances, and publications.

Research Interests: Her work examines mafia structures, anti-mafia civil mobilization, historical memory of political violence, and the role of media in shaping public perception of crime and justice. Key areas include the Sicilian mafia's impact, the legacy of anti-mafia martyrs like Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino, and transnational mafia dynamics.

Publications: Recent works include analyses of Italian mafia globalization (2024), civil society's role in anti-mafia efforts (2024), and the Camorra's heterogeneous nature (2024). She explores media's role in myth-making (e.g., Valentino Rossi's media persona) and public history through graphic novels (2021). Her 2020 work on antimafia-driven economic alternatives highlights socio-territorial rehabilitation strategies.

Media Engagement: Regular contributor to France Culture, France Info, and LCP, discussing mafia infiltration in France, public memory of mafia victims, and judicial challenges in Italy. Her insights bridge academic research with public awareness initiatives.

Academic Contributions: Editor of special issues on civil society responses to terrorism and mafias (Laboratoire Italien, 2019). Her doctoral thesis (2015) on public memory construction around anti-mafia martyrs remains foundational in the field.
