Building the anti-dogmatic system of the individuation of sense-making, after having specialized/published works on Simondon's thought.
Since 2017, the year of the ambitious and seminal work presented for the HDR at Université Paris-Nanterre, and after having worked for over twenty years on the philosophy of Gilbert Simondon—to whom I devoted several monographs as well as the creation of the CIDES at MSH Paris-Nord—I have fully returned to my early philosophical project.

Philosopher - Associate researcher (HDR) at the laboratory "Logiques de l'Agir" of the University of Franche-Comté (now re-named "Université Marie et Louis Pasteur"). Building the anti-dogmatic system of the individuation of sense-making, after having specialized/published works on Simondon's thought.
Since 2017, the year of the ambitious and seminal work presented for the HDR at Université Paris-Nanterre, and after having worked for over twenty years on the philosophy of Gilbert Simondon—to whom I devoted several monographs as well as the creation of the CIDES at MSH Paris-Nord—I have fully returned to my early philosophical project. I now articulate my fundamental question of the three-dimensionality of sense-making with the ecological question, through what I call the “crisis of reflexivity” in its three modalities. My Master’s theses and later my doctoral dissertation (2003), largely dedicated to Simondon, were in fact already explicitly oriented toward this theoretical horizon. Today, through a new series of works, I am building the philosophy I have named "human ecology", also motivated by the analogical idea of Philosophical Relativity—explicitly called for by Ludwig Wittgenstein, a formative influence of my youth, in his very last text.
From the most recent book to the earliest one:
La Philosophie du Paradoxe: Prolégomènes à la Relativité philosophique (Paris: Éditions Matériologiques, 2024). This book revisits the question of method in order to reconstruct the domains of philosophy on the basis of “archi-reflexive semantics,” which brings to light the different dimensions of the sense-making of any given thing, insofar as it is irreducible to the sole dimension of the OB-ject ("ob-jectum") of knowledge.
Manifeste pour l’Écologie Humaine (Arles: Actes Sud, 2022). A both pedagogical and committed presentation of my project, at the request of Actes Sud, with an emphasis on its political and ecological dimensions.
Ego Alter: Dialogues pour l’Avenir de la Terre (Paris: Éditions Matériologiques, 2021). On religious anthropocentrism, legal norms, progress, the Anthropocene, and sense-making.
La Société de l’Invention: Pour une Architectonique philosophique de l’Âge écologique (Paris: Éditions Matériologiques, 2018). A seminal work for human ecology as a system that is at once global and radically anti-dogmatic in its account of the individuation of sense-making.
From 2005 to 2015, I published several monographs on the philosophy of Gilbert Simondon (L’Harmattan, 2005; Presses Universitaires de France, 2008; Belles Lettres, 2014; Meson Press, 2015).
Editor and director of the Cahiers Simondon from 2009 to 2015, and co-editor (with Ludovic Duhem) of the collective volume Écologie et Technologie: Redéfinir le Progrès après Simondon (Paris: Éditions Matériologiques, 2022).
