I am an interdisciplinary social scientist. I blend the spatial perspective of geographic research with an anthropological approach to understanding how experts and publics reason about collective problems. My main area of research is in economic politics – the styles and techniques of economic argumentation through which collective decisions are made – a topic which transects my work on urbanism and development.
I am a researcher at the Institut de recherche interdisciplinaire en sciences sociales (IRISSO) at the Université Paris-Dauphine. My work is supported by the Hau of Finance research project (Social and Cultural Anthropology Lab, Università di Bologna) and the Urban Revolution and the Political research project (Laboratoire techniques territoires sociétés, Centre national de la recherche scientifique).
