Andrea Salvatore is tenure-track Assistant Professor of Political Philosophy (SPS/01) at the Department of Philosophy of Sapienza – Università di Roma (Rome, Italy). His research interests include legal theory, contemporary political philosophy and applied ethics, with a focus on the relationship between social order and political violence (with particular reference to Carl Schmitt's, René Girard's and Michael Walzer's theories). As to his research interests in the legal field, he has advanced an alternative reading of Carl Schmitt’s legal thinking by emphasizing the relevance of Schmitt's institutionalist works published in the early 1930s. He is now working on the multiple connections between anarchism and the law, and, more generally, on the effectiveness of non-coercive legal order in small-scale interactional contexts. His publications include Undoing Ties: Political Philosophy at the Waning of the State (with Mariano Croce, Bloomsbury 2015), The Legal Theory of Carl Schmitt (with Mariano Croce, Routledge 2013), Guerra giusta? Politica e morale dei conflitti armati (manifestolibri 2016), Filosofia politica. Le nuove frontiere (with Mariano Croce, Laterza 2012), Giustizia in contesto. La filosofia politica di Michael Walzer (Liguori 2010), Il pacifismo (Carocci 2010). His articles have been published in various international journals such as European Journal of Social Theory, Ratio Juris, Cultural Critique, Telos. He is member of the Editorial Staff of the scientific journals Politica & Società and Behemoth.
