Researching discourse and knowledge in society
|
I research discourse and knowledge, the role they play in society, how we can apprehend their effects, and what it takes to produce discourses and knowledge helping us to create a world consistent with our values.
Working on discourse and knowledge is a peculiar craft as discourse and knowledge are both the object of our attention and the means through which we access and communicate these objects. I am fascinated by the recursivity of this situation, and thrive to create encompassing reflexive frameworks, combining tools from different disciplines, to address this amazing challenge. |
As an Assistant Professor in Qualitative Methodology at the London School of Economics, I have found a position that enables me to merge the practical and theoretical dimensions of my research in my teachings of Text/Discourse analysis and Participatory Research.
I have created this website to share with you my research interests and current projects. I hope you will enjoy it! |

RESEARCHI aim to develop a better theoretical understanding of the articulation between social change, discourse and knowledge, as well as methodological tools to produce more innovative knowledge and less socio-discriminative discourses. Here I present my main current and past research projects.
