He is developing a metatheoretical framework for interpreting dispositifs (apparatuses) in a trilogy of books. The first book was published as an anthology (Dispositif: A Cartography, 2023). He is currently writing the second installment covering the genealogical problem of the emergence of the term in Michel Foucault (Dispositional Thought). The third installment will cover the genealogy of dispositifs more broadly in contemporary theory (Dispositif: A Genealogy).
