Personal profile

Research

My research started in the field of interreligious relations, religious plurality, theology of religions, double religious belonging and religious identity from the perspective of philosophy of religion. My research interests are now more focused on religion and politics, populism and theology, post-truth and conspiracy theories. Deeply inspired by Luce Irigaray my current research is mainly informed by readings of philosophers as Jacques Derrida, Emmanuel Levinas and Paul Ricœur. Spearheading the research project Beyond Truth and Lies — Conspiracy Theories, Post-truth, and the Conditions of Public Debate:
