Ulysses's Director | Pietro Masci, PhD | Economy, between Europe and USA | My overreaching goal is the search for a never-ending knowledge.
My research interest is to use my long practical and theoretical experience - in the development and functioning of financial markets, financial analysis, project finance, public policy, political economy, regulatory aspects, cost and benefits (CBA) of government intervention, debt and insurance markets, and entrepreneurship - toward the objective of providing a framework to build a better and more inclusive political, institutional and electoral system with opportunities available to all. Within this context, my task is to understand the links between economics, finance and power and political structure in various systems and countries, with particular attention to the United States and Italy, the two countries where I spent the largest parts of my life. This allows me to study the political systems and their development and how those systems serve the interest of specific groups rather than the public general interest. This approach is geared towards the goal of defining a political-institutional and electoral system that eliminates or reduces the power of elites, and allows the circulation and change of those elites so as to realize a society that reduces inequalities and offers opportunities to all.
To this end, it is crucial the use of appropriate methodology rooted on logical and qualitative analysis and on philosophical underpinning, articulating thesis and finding confirmation using quantitative tools and analysis – including audit and audit performance- particularly through survey design, panel data, spatial analysis, structural equation modeling, time series, and network analysis.
