PhD candidate at the University of Málaga, in the Doctoral Programme Estudios Avanzados en Humanidades since November 2019, and recipient of an FPU Spanish research fellowship as of November 2020. He’s also a member of research project Civic Constellation III: Democracy, Constitutionalism, and Anti-Liberalism (Spain’s National Research Fund). With a background in philosophy, and a special focus on political philosophy, some of his research interests are conceptual history, history of political ideas, history of constitutionalism and theory of populism.

Those interests are reflected in publications, workshops and seminars, such as his presentation at the 2019 edition of the RECAST Training School in the Humanities & the Social Sciences, at the Norwegian Institute at Athens: “Revising the Laws of Athenian Democracy: A Milestone in Constitutional History” or his paper on the constitutional checks on political power in Athenian democracy (La limitación constitucional del poder: un estudio sobre la asamblea democrática ateniense en la Guerra del Peloponeso, “Res Publica” 23:1, 1-10. https://doi.org/10.5209/rpub.64991).
