Career and thought
In the years 2003–04, Lottieri taught Philosophy of Social Sciences at Ca' Foscari University of Venice, and in 2011 became visiting professor at Aix-en-Provence. Fellow of many institutions,[4] he is the Director of Political Theory department of the Istituto Bruno Leoni (IBL), based in Turin.[5] Lottieri's research develops a radical American-style libertarianism combining a strong emphasis on the inviolability of other people (marked by the influence of Emmanuel Lévinas) and a realistic approach to the modern state, largely influenced by Italian elitist school, Carl Schmitt's scholarship, and public choice and Austrian School economists. Following Raimondo Cubeddu and Alberto Mingardi, in his work Lottieri "argues for the legitimacy of many so-called 'monopolistic practices' (cartels, monopolization, mergers, predatory pricing…), and for the legitimacy of conglomerates, and big business at large, vis-à-vis those governmental agencies built to thoroughly implement 'competition' from top to bottom."[6] His last book emphasizes the historic features of the modern state, suggesting to libertarian scholars to understand the cultural and even theological implications of the struggle between the rulers and the ruled.[7]
