Giuseppe Duso has taught Political Philosophy at the Università degli Studi di Padova. He has translated into Italian an original line of studies based on the interpretation of the German Begriffsgeschichte of Brunner, Conze and Koselleck as political philosophy. For Duso, conceptual history studies the logic and aporias of the main modern political categories. In recent years his research has focused on the study of federalism as another way of thinking about and practicing politics.
