Domains
My research interests include political philosophy from Aristotle to Arendt through Spinoza, Hegel and Marx, recent and contemporary French Philosophy (especially Althusser, Foucault, Derrida, Blanchot), the question of critique with special reference to religion and political economy, racism and nationalism. I recently published a book on secularism and cosmopolitanism (Saeculum. Religion, Culture, Idéologie, 2012, English translation forthcoming with Columbia University Press) and a book on conflicting universalities (Des universels, 2016, English translation forthcoming with Fordham University Press).
