Guido Panvini is an Associate Professor in the Department of Social and Economic Sciences at Sapienza University of Rome, where he teaches contemporary history and social and cultural history. He has held academic positions at multiple institutions including the University of Tuscia, University of Macerata, LUISS Guido Carli University, University of Perugia, Sciences Po Paris, and University of Bologna. His international academic experience includes being a postdoctoral fellow at Yale University's MacMillan Center, a visiting scholar at KU Leuven's KADOC, and a Marie Curie Fellow at Sciences Po Paris.
Professor Panvini's research focuses on political violence, terrorism, social conflict, and political extremism with particular attention to 20th century Italy. His work explores the memory and legacy of civil wars, the history of intellectuals, democratic transitions in Mediterranean Europe, religious radicalization, social Catholicism, the victim paradigm in contemporary Italy, and the crisis of democracy and rise of populism. His research combines historical analysis with contemporary political concerns, examining how past conflicts shape present political realities.
His recent publications reveal a consistent focus on the construction of victim narratives, political delegitimization processes, and the complex relationship between religious movements and political violence. Panvini's work demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of how historical memory intersects with contemporary political discourse, particularly regarding terrorism and civil conflict.
