‘I discovered Weber in the context of my PhD in philosophy on family authority, since he is an essential reference for understanding how the state and capitalist economic structures have configured the family institution in modernity. More broadly, my interest in Weberian sociology is linked to its capacity to operate a radical critique of modern political philosophy, i.e. to socialise and historicise its main concepts (subjectivity, law, power, etc.).’
