I’m an Assistant Professor of Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science. My work mostly focuses on the thought of Karl Marx, the republican political tradition and theories of popular democracy.

I’m one of four principal investigators of the ERC Synergy Grant “POPGOV: Popular Government in Global Perspective”. The project seeks to uncover democratic alternatives to representative government, which we group under the label of “popular government”, from a combination of historical, comparative, empirical and philosophical approaches.

My book Citizen Marx: Republicanism and the Formation of Karl Marx’s Social and Political Thought was published in 2024 and won the ECPR Political Theory Prize and the Isaac and Tamara Deutscher Memorial Prize.

Before coming to LSE I was a Fellow at The New Institute in Hamburg, a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence and a Postdoctoral Fellow in Political Theory at the Justitia Amplificata Centre for Advanced Studies at the Goethe University Frankfurt and the Free University of Berlin. I completed my doctorate at the University of Oxford.
