Enrico Petracca has been a senior fellow at KLI since September 2023. His work at the intersection of economics, “embodied” cognitive science, and the philosophy of mind aims to introduce a novel notion of rationality called “embodied rationality”. In the last ten years, he has published more than 20 articles variously related to this subject in peer-reviewed journals and collective volumes, privileging strongly interdisciplinary outlets.

Since 2014 he has also held an appointment as a research associate at the University of Bologna (Italy) and did research, either as a post-doc or a lecturer, at the University of Pisa (Italy), Neuchâtel (Switzerland), and the Swiss Institute in Rome. He is a devotee of the (underappreciated) art of writing academic book reviews.
