Filippo Sabetti is a professor in the Department of Political Science at McGill University and a senior research fellow at the Vincent and Elinor Ostrom Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis, Indiana University. His most recent study, Civilization and Self-Government: The Political Thought of Carlo Cattaneo (2010), reveals why the 19th-century pioneering analysis of Carlo Cattaneo merits a place, alongside John Stuart Mill and Alexis de Tocqueville, in the continuing debate about the meaning of civilization, liberty, and self-government.
