Dr. Miriam Tedeschi is an Academy of Finland PostDoc Researcher at the Faculty of Law, University of Turku and Visiting researcher at the Westminster Law & Theory Lab, London. She is also docent in human geography, with specialisation in non-representational theories, at the Department of Geography and Geology, University of Turku.
She successfully defended her doctoral thesis in Regional Planning and Public Policies at University Institute of Architecture in Venice, in 2017. She spent her Ph.D. (2014-2016) between the Department of Design and Planning in Complex Environments of the University Institute of Architecture, Venice and the Law and Theory Lab of the University of Westminster, London. She has published widely, both nationally and internationally, including peer-reviewed articles, scientific monographs, book chapters, conference papers, policy reports, popularized texts. Her multidisciplinary curriculum is completed by an MA in Philosophy, a BSc in Digital Communication, and a specific expertise in the ICTs, where she worked as research-oriented consultant for 15 years prior to her Ph.D.
With Daniela Alaattinoglu, she is the co-founder of the research environment "Law, Space and Justice" at the Faculty of Law.
Her research focuses on the multiple relationships between humans and the different spatio-legal configurations they embody: segregated or criminalized spaces (Ph.D. research project, IUAV University & University of Westminster, 2014-2017); migratory spaces (PostDoc research project, Division of Geography, University of Turku, 2018-2019); natural spaces (PostDoc research project, Division of Geography, University of Turku, 2020-2021); blended (physical/digital) spaces (Academy of Finland PostDoc research project, Faculty of Law, University of Turku, 2022 onwards). She draws on non-representational theories and new materialism, and through these lenses she has been studying spatio-legal phenomena.
Her Academy of Finland PostDoc research project runs from 01/09/2022 until 31/08/2025 and is about on spatial justice and data justice (JuDiCe - Justice in Digital Spaces).
