I am part of the the Contours of a non-oligarchic democratic future project, led by Janosch Prinz (Maastricht), Manon Westphal (Munich) and Enzo Rossi (Amsterdam). The project is funded by the Gerda Henkel Stiftung. My research is in contemporary political philosophy and deals mostly with capitalism, political emotions, racism, gender, and the relationship between power and knowledge. Many of my publications are freely accessible on Academia.
