POST-DOCTORAL RESEARCH
My postdoc research focuses on political finance corruption and its constitutional implications. I analyse, in particular, how the Brazilian Judiciary has decided cases of Operation Car Wash.
DOCTORAL RESEARCH
My PhD research examined the relationship between two areas of law related to capitalist democracy’s intra-competition: the constitutional-electoral law (which shapes political competition) and antitrust/competition law (which shapes economic competition). The thesis analysed, in particular, the implications of the Brazilian law of democracy on antitrust law.
