I am a doctoral researcher at Humboldt University of Berlin and a visiting researcher in the research group “Globalization, Work, and Production” at the WZB Berlin Social Science Center.

In my dissertation at the Chair of Sociology of Work, Economy and Technological Change (Prof. Dr. Philipp Staab), I examine the emergence and relevance of a contemporary civil society of war from a power- and domination-centered sociological perspective, exploring its possible trajectories in late modernity.

My explorative empirical research challenges social theory’s disregard of war and advances a contemporary understanding of everyday life under conditions of war and its anticipation. Rather than conceptualizing war solely in state-military terms with a focus on civilian endangerment, it foregrounds the entanglement of civil society activities in violent conflicts.

As an ELES Research Fellow (2025-28), my work engages with the sociology of war and violence, sociology of work and industry, political economy, and social theory.
