Our response to political manifestos during elections usually reflects the different ways we think about politics. Yet, we can also demonstrate our politics in less obvious stereotypical associations, including consumption and lifestyle choices, argue Gaetano Scaduto and Fedra Negri, through an experiment they conducted on food in Italy.
Gaetano is visiting researcher with the Media, Movement, and Politics research group at the Department of Political Science of the University of Antwerp.
He holds a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics for Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Turin and a Master's degree in Public and Political Communication from the University of Turin.
Gaetano's research focuses on political communication and, more specifically, on political stereotypes.
His works have been published in Mass Communication & Society, Italian Journal of Election Studies, and South European Society and Politics.
In 2024, Gaetano was awarded the prize for 'Best Paper from a Junior Researcher' by the Italian Political Communication Association.
