Présentation

I am a CNRS researcher in political science at Pacte, Sciences-Po Grenoble. My research work straddles sociology of law and policy analysis, with a particular interest in the genesis, institutionalization and uses of expertise and socio-technical systems in policy on justice, law and order. After writing a book on judicial expertise, I turned to analysis of CCTV, electronic monitoring and court hearings videoconferencing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceCEwoXLjEY

I have also worked on relations between the law, the judiciary and politics, in particular on the judicialization of politics - in partnership with Jacques Commaille.

I am currently preparing an habilitation thesis (accreditation to supervise research) which is focused on the question of judgement and algorithms. Since 2019, I have been conducting a research project on algorithmic devices for processing and analysing case law decisions, often referred to as "predictive justice". This research is funded by the Algorithmic society chair. This Chair is one of the research chairs of the University Grenoble Alpes MIAI (Multidisciplinary Institute in Artificial Intelligence). 

I am a member of the JUSTI-REP project led by Cécile Vigour and funded by the GIP Mission de recherche Droit et justice and ELIPSS.
