Francesca Borgarello is doctoral fellow at the Centre for Social Studies, University of Coimbra and at the University of Bologna. Borgarello is completing her dissertation in “Philosophy and Postcolonial Studies”, which aims at critically reconstructing the trajectory of Indian Subaltern Studies, both within Western and Indian debates.

Currently, her main interests are postcolonial theories as a means of both permanently deconstructing Eurocentric theories, categories, and epistemological structures; and developing non-Eurocentric critiques of global capital; Marxism; and, more recently, the exploration of the resonances between casteisms and racism, as well as abolitionist approaches to both systems of power.
