Teaching
French Foreign Policy and NATO (graduate students)
The aim of this three-hour course is to analyse the key elements of France’s national security policies since WWII, with the focus on the French attempt to combine claims for political and military independence and to adapt to the reality and the balance of power in post-war Europe.
History, Memory and Security Policy-Making (public lecture)
The lecture aims at presenting the different theories accounting for the “presence of the past” in security issues. Does history have a causal influence on security policy-making? Can security actors draw the “right” lessons from history?
Seminar (Conférence de Méthode) on “Science Politique” (undergraduate students)
This 36-hour seminar situates power and conflicts as the core issues of Political Science and gives some insights into the subfields of the discipline.
Seminar (Conférence de Méthode) on “Méthodes des Sciences Sociales” (undergraduate students)
This course presents the main methods of the social sciences with a particular focus on semi-directive interview and quantitative data analysis (SPSS software).
Teaching Statement
I was an ATER (lecturer and researcher) at the Institut d’Etudes Politiques in Grenoble, France from 2005-2007. There I taught political science and social sciences methodologies to undergraduate students and oversaw some graduate-level research projects. In 2008-2009, I mostly taught international relations at the European University Institute in Florence (Italy), the Humboldt Universität Berlin (Germany) and the universita di Bologna-Forli (Italy). In the forthcoming year (2009-2010), I will give a lecture on introduction to research to under-graduate students at the université de Montréal (Canada).
