Institutional profile
Since 2007 Prof. Salgó has been teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in World Politics, International Organizations, European Union, Politics and Psychology, Comparative Politics and Identity Politics at both private and public universities. From 2004 to 2008 she worked as a research fellow at a foreign policy think tank – IPALMO, offering her expertise to projects (sponsored by the United Nations Development Program, the United Nations System Staff College and the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs) relating to the social and political development of Middle Eastern, North African and Eastern European countries. Prof. Salgó works across disciplines. Drawing upon insights from critical theory, anthropology, and art history, in her research she explores how both conscious and non-conscious emotive experiences relate to public and political life. She studies the many ways desire, fantasy, and emotions figure in the realm of politics, with special emphasis on periods of tension and conflict. The sources and nature of charismatic leadership, the symbolic and the mythological construction of social communities, the emotionalization, dramatization and sacralization of politics, the revival of old (and the birth of new) civil and political religions and the role of images in politics constitute the main themes of her publications.
