Academic profile

My academic interests in the last 15 years encompassed moral philosophy, the history of political ideas and European cultural history, with special emphasis on modern European thinking. Within the scope of these interests, my academic activity consisted of teaching at a university level (University of Bucharest, Polytechnic University of Bucharest, “Ion Mincu” University of Architecture and Urbanism) and participating in conferences and collective research projects as part of research centers and groups such as: Foundation of Modern Thought Research Center, (University of Bucharest), Early Modern Thought Research Group (New Europe College, Bucharest), Association des Chercheurs Francophones en Sciences Humaines (Cluj&Bucharest), Permanent International Altaic Conference (Huhot University, R.P.China, University of St. Petersburg, Russian Federation, Indiana University, Bloomington, U.S.), SACR, Bucharest. Since 2010, my older interest in the issues of the modern political construction of identity, as well as my interest in the history of cultures, have guided me towards the study of one of the most controversial European populations, both politically and anthropologically, namely the Roma. In particular, my current doctoral research (PhD expected .December 2013) focuses on the issue of contructing and representing Roma identity. The topic of this research is a draft project for a Roma museum in Romania. I attempt to contrast a few sociological, anthropological and political approaches to the many shapes of Roma identity, as part of an open museum project designed to be a civic, educational and research platform.
