Research Director

Marco Deodati is a professor of moral philosophy at the University of Rome Tor Vergata. His studies focus on three main areas of research: phenomenology, both in its classical form and in its contemporary manifestations; practical philosophy in the broad sense, especially with reference to the dynamics of subjectivation, the social and technological dimension of human beings, and ethical consciousness in the normative and pre-normative sense; existentialist thought (in particular, the reflections of Jaspers). He is one of the founders of the Officina di Ricerche Fenomenologiche (ORF), an inter-university research centre.
