Om Stefania Galli

Stefania Galli is an Assistant Professor at the Unit for Economic History at the University of Gothenburg.

Prior to this appointment, she has been serving as a LSE fellow at the London School of Economics (LSE) and as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Gothenburg. She holds a PhD from the University of Gothenburg for her work on social stratification in 19th century West Africa.

Her research interests fall at the crossroad between Economic History and Development Economics. On the one hand, her reearch focuses on the impact of institutions (e.g., slavery and colonialism) on inequality and development in the Global South. On the other hand, she is interested in examining the effects of trade policy at different societal levels, macro- and micro-.

Her research relies on a multi-disciplinary, quantitative approach applied to archival sources. Her work has been published, amongst others, in Explorations in Economic HIstory, The Economic History Review, European Economic History Review, Cliometrica, Social Science History.

She welcomes enquiries concerning collaborations and supervision.
