Jean-François Staszak is a Professor at the University of Geneva, where he has been teaching since 2004. He completed his doctorate at the University of Paris-Sorbonne in 1993 and has held academic positions at the University of Picardie and the University of Panthéon-Sorbonne. His initial research focused on ancient history and epistemology in geography, evolving to include economic and cultural geography.
