He also writes on authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. Rodogno is a professor of international history at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, in Geneva, Switzerland. He was previously an RCUK Academic Fellow at the University of St Andrews and a research fellow at the London School of Economics. In 2005, he received the Italian literary award, Feudo Di Maida Prize (in full, Premio Letterario Internazionale Feudo Di Maida), for his book ''Il nuovo ordine mediterraneo'' (published by Bollati Boringhieri, Turin). The book, a history of Italy's fascist imperial ambitions in the 1940s, was re-published by Cambridge University Press under the title ''Fascism’s European Empire'' (Cambridge University Press, 2006).
