Chapters in Books

1. On the distribution of particularistic goods, in eds. Caballero and N. Schofield,

Si è occupato di teoria delle scelte collettive, in particolare nel disegno di meccanismi di fornitura di beni e servizi pubblici. Più recentemente ha lavorato su problemi di matching theory con applicazioni a meccanismi per migliorare l'efficienza dei protocolli di assegnazioni di organi ai pazienti in attesa di trapianto. I lavori correnti studiano fenomeni sociali come l'insorgenza di fenomeni come l'estremismo politico o la presenza di discriminazione di genere nei mercati del lavoro.
