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.
