Dr Davide Luca is an Associate Professor of Economic Geography. He is currently running a 5-year ERC-funded research project exploring territorial and political polarisation along the urban-rural continuum in Europe. His work contributes to:
(1) exploring how technological change and government interventions shape patterns of uneven territorial development
(2) measuring how territorial inequality drives political behaviour and individual socioeconomic outcomes
(3) evaluating place-based policies.

He holds a PhD in Economic Geography from the London School of Economics and Political Science, where he is a Senior Visiting Fellow.
