Welcome

I am Luca Cigna, PhD graduate at the European University Institute (EUI) in Florence and Postdoctoral Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies (MPIfG) in Cologne.  

In my research, I explore the evolving nature of work and the new logic of collective action in advanced economies, focusing on trade unions, labour markets and social policy institutions. I am also interested in the political economy of care work, the environmental crisis and a 'just transition'.

My work has appeared on several outlets, including Regulation and Governance, Journal of European Public Policy, Social Policy & Administration, and the European Journal of Industrial Relations.
