His work focuses on the relationship between literature, politics, and philosophy in contemporary French thought, particularly on how it interprets the relationship between language and power.
This interest is structured around two main areas. On the one hand, he examines the “politics of discourse” that are established, either explicitly or implicitly, within every political discourse. On the other hand, he explores the ethical dimension of literature, especially through discussions surrounding the notion of “community.” In the first area, he has studied contemporary readings of authors such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Donatien Alphonse François de Sade, Maximilien Robespierre, and Louis Antoine de Saint-Just. In the second, he has closely engaged with the thought of Maurice Blanchot, Georges Bataille, Jean-Luc Nancy, and Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe.
Between 2020 and 2024, he served as principal investigator of the Fondecyt Postdoctoral project *Une philosophie de la distance. Maurice Blanchot et la relation de troisième genre*. He is currently co-investigator of the Fondecyt Regular project *Infringir el silencio de la ley*, together with Aïcha Liviana Messina. In parallel, he has developed an extensive body of work dedicated to the translation of philosophical texts, with more than ten books published to date in Chile, Spain, and Argentina.
His work is affiliated with the “Political Thought” research line, where he also serves as coordinator of the study group “Literature, Philosophy, and Power.”
