Short Biography

Currently I am Profesor Visitante (tenure track) in Political Theory at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Department of Social and Political Sciences (Barcelona, Spain). In 2007-2008 I was a Lecturer in Political Theory at University College Dublin, School of Politics and International Relations. In February 2008 I defended my PhD on “Democracy, Rhetoric and Decision” at the European University Institute.

I have published in the “Journal of Political Philosophy” and the “European Journal of Political Theory.” I also have articles under review with “Constellations: an International Journal of Critical and Democratic Theory” and “Review of Politics.” At present, I am working on a book on “Democratic Theory and Religion” (under contract with Routledge, 2010) and co-editing “Law, State and Religion in the New Europe” with Lorenza Zucca, (under contract with Cambridge University Press, 2010.)

Two of my co-edited books are forthcoming: “From the Nation-State to the Postnational Constellation: Jϋrgen Habermas’ Theory of Law and Democracy” (vol. I-II, Ashgate, 2009/2010, co-edited with Klaus Gϋnther and Christian Joerges); and “Religion in the Public Sphere” (Polirom, 2010, co-edited with Camil Parvu, in Romanian).
