He is a PhD candidate in philosophy under the direction of Judith Revel, Laboratory of contemporary philosophy PhiCo in Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne University. His research aims to build a history of governementalities at work in the different methods of supervision and control imposed on colonized populations, more specifically in Algeria during French colonization. He studies the way in which these political rationales were reused after the Algerian War by the police in order to impose a control on immigrant communities. This research examines the genealogy of the internal foreigner as a political figure in postcolonial societies.
