About#

I am a historian working on political, cultural, and intellectual history, with a focus on Southeast Europe. My research deals primarily with the history of the Cold War from a global and transnational perspective. I am interested in the use of digital methods for historical research, spatial humanities, and network theory.

I am based in Ljubljana and I work as a research fellow at the Institute for contemporary history. From November 2025, I will also be Principal Investigator of the project “Brokers of Non-Alignment: Biographical and Network Approaches to the Making of the Third World” funded by an ERC Starting Grant. I am also a member of the editorial team of the journal The Programming Historian, and research associate at the Centre d’études turques, ottomanes, balkaniques et centrasiatiques in Paris.

I completed my PhD at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in France and the University of San Martín in Argentina. I have been research fellow and visiting scholar at different institutions in France, Germany, Austria, Croatia, and Hungary, and Greece. My first book, published by Éditions Karthala in Paris and titled Les sciences sociales face à la crise : une histoire intellectuelle de la crise yougoslave (1980-1995), analyzes the transformation of Yugoslav social sciences during the crisis and breakup of the country. My second book, a history of Communism in Central and Eastern Europe in Spanish co-written with José Luis Aguilar, was recently published by Siglo XXI in Buenos Aires and Madrid. I have also co-edited a collective volume on the conceptual history of transition in Southern and Eastern Europe, which will be published soon by Berghahn Books.
