I am Professor at the centre de Sociologie des Organisations (CSO) and co-Dean of the School of Management and Innovation at Sciences Po Paris.

My research addresses the complex interactions between Business and Society. From a sociological tradition inspired by Weberian institutionalism and the work of Karl Polanyi, I investigate the new “Great Transformation” – the consequential evolution through which economic dynamics and logics have come to impose themselves in more and more dimensions of our societies and lives. 

Research Themes:

  • Capitalism and its transformations - history and comparison

  • The transnational diffusion of rules, ideas and practices

  • Globalization and Americanization

  • The dynamics of Transnational Regulation and Governance

  • Corporate Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility

  • The Ethical Foundations of contemporary capitalism

  • Economic Sociology, the Sociology of Markets, Institutional Theory
