Directory:Maurizio Giuliano
Maurizio Giuliano is an Italian-British author, and was a United Nations press officer for Sudan and the Central African Republic in 2006/2007. [1][2]
Maurizio Giuliano earned a degree from Oxford University in 1996, [3] and a master's degree from Cambridge University in 1997.[3]
He published and edited several studies, including two books on Cuban politics, as well as numerous articles. His scholarly work on Cuba, notably on the 1996 purge of Havana's Centre for American Studies (CEA) (contained in the book "El Caso CEA" published in 1998), has been the object of numerous academic reviews, as it exposed the internal conflicts between Cuba's political apparatus and the country's intelligentsia, previously unknown.[4]
He claimed that, through his work, he had travelled to every single sovereign country in the world, at least 192 countries (potentially 238 territories), having started at age 14.[5] He travelled to London with over 40 passports filled with immigration, visa and transit stamps, in order to prove his record with the Guinness Book of World Records (after 2000 known as "Guinness World Records").[5]
