Forskning
Min huvudsakliga forskning är inom demokratiteori och omfattar teorier om demokratiskt självförsvar och militant demokrati, representativa institutioner som obligatorisk röstning, sortition och ostracism, samt populism, medborgarskap och secessionism. Jag är också intresserad av politisk etik, retorik, antikens politiska tänkande och politiska ideologier.
