معرفی
Lorenzo Zucca is Professor of Law & Philosophy at King's College London's Dickson Poon School of Law. Educated across Milan, Paris, Oxford, and Florence, his interdisciplinary research examines human rights philosophy, constitutional theory, and law-religion relations, with current focus on Shakespeare's insights into legal uncertainty.
Research specialties include:
- Constitutional dilemmas in pluralist societies
- Secularism in European legal frameworks
- Shakespearean jurisprudence and legal epistemology
- Conscience rights in democratic systems
- Global constitutional ordering
Recent scholarship (2018-2025) demonstrates evolving focus: early work on secularism and conscience has developed toward examining legal uncertainty through Shakespearean drama. Publications increasingly integrate literary analysis with constitutional theory, exploring how poetic wisdom informs legal reasoning in complex moral landscapes.
