Anna Longhini argues that in the relationship between citizens and bureaucrats, we find the seeds of populist ideology, which characterises the former as the 'pure people' and the latter as the 'corrupt elite'. Italy is a useful case in point. There, attempts to reform the public sector have failed to stem the spread of populist ideology
Anna works on the Next Generation EU project DIGIEFFECT (2023–26), which investigates the risks associated with digital political campaigning in the EU.
Prior to that, she was a Research fellow at Trieste University.
Her research interests lie in the fields of global public policy and public administration.
