Giovanna Scocozza is an associate professor in the scientific-disciplinary sector L-LIN/07 – Language and Translation – Spanish Language at the University for Foreigners of Perugia. Her recent research has focused on the analysis of non-violent struggle experiences in contemporary Latin America and Spain, as well as the possible influence of Aldo Capitini's thought in these contexts. She also reflects anew on issues of identity and migration present in the Hispanic world, always with particular attention to the complex reality of the Spanish-Moroccan border. Her studies are also centered on the intricate universe of philosophical translation, now with an eye turned toward the other side of the ocean, that is, toward that Latin American philosophical and political thought which, while maintaining its specificity and originality, must absolutely be considered as an active part of humanism and universal culture (see the translation of P. Guadarrama's volume, “Philosophy and No More Philosophy. Philosophy, Culture, and Politics in Spanish America”). She is currently Director of the Center for Linguistic Assessment and Certification (CVCL) at the University for Foreigners of Perugia, as well as the Rector’s Delegate for International Relations (Latin America Area). She is director of the Polispanica series, published by Guida Editore, as well as a member of the scientific committee of various series and journals. She is a member of the Interuniversity Center for Comparative Area Studies: Asia, Africa, Latin America (ASAFAL) – University of Siena, and “Visitante Ilustre” at the Instituto Universitario Italiano de Rosario (Argentina).
