My research falls within the fields of history and political science:

• political history of France and Spain

• international relations

• geopolitics

• history of ideas and political movements

• cultural history

• analysis of public policies

As a crisis specialist, my work focuses on political transformations at the beginning of the 21st century. In addition to a historical approach, I favor a qualitative fieldwork method based on conducting ethnographic interviews. In this capacity, I collaborate with researchers in the fields of history, political science, and sociology, as well as elected officials, civil servants, and consultants.

They cover several research topics:

• the crisis of global democracy

• the crises

• the transformation of the international order

• the instrumentalization of history and national imaginaries

• the history of emotions

Regarding my doctoral thesis :

My doctoral thesis focuses on the Crisis and transformation of the political supply in France and Spain: the emergence of movement parties (2008-2021).
This political history thesis aims to study the nature, meaning, and scope of the new political expressions—La France Insoumise, La République En Marche, Podemos, and Ciudadanos—that emerged in France and Spain in response to the 2008 crisis. My work helps us understand how the 2008 crisis became the crucible of a widespread political crisis in the two political regimes studied. While the four political expressions initially manifested as platforms and movements seeking to do politics differently, I analyze how they all rapidly institutionalized as political parties within their respective party systems from 2014 to 2021. During this period, they forged political alliances with other traditional parties and participated in elections, giving rise to a new party typology: the party-movement. In this sense, my work examines, based on their emergence and institutionalization, how these party-movements have renewed the French and Spanish party systems. Based on the continuities and ruptures they claim and outline in their political culture and practices, this research assesses the degree of novelty of these party-movements and their capacity to resolve the widespread crisis of political representation in the two countries studied. The study of political crises and their manifestations in the French and Spanish political regimes and party systems (1968-2008) allows me to consider the liberalization of political regimes and cultural shifts as the precursors to the crisis. The four party-movements maintain relationships with one another and share a common partisan form, crystallized around a single political line and a leader, whose charisma I examine. The methodology employed relies on qualitative ethnographic interviews conducted with the cadres and dissidents of the four party-movements; I also gathered the perspectives of activists and sympathizers. It is further based on existing research on the same subject and on the study of historiography and the speeches of the leaders. My research also draws on secondary sources, the result of extensive documentation of the press, primarily digital. The global crisis, studied since the 1960s, allows me, through a chronological and systemic approach, to grasp the historical significance of political parties and movements and to explore the possibility of a paradigm shift in the approach to the crisis, one that transcends politics and its representative nature.
