Over the last ten years, I have taught in five different Swiss universities (Bern, FernUni Schweiz, Lausanne, the EPFL, Zurich), in history and social sciences departments. I aim at using history to help students to address the major social, economic and political issues of our time. The table below gives an overview of the situation until 2018.
From 2020 onwards, I teach at the UNIL on the history of social classes and inequalities (Histoire Internationale Contemporaine, BA students) and on the methodology of historical research (Atelier pratique de recherche, MA students). In addition, I teach on the history of globalization at the EFPL (MA students) and on economic history at the Fernuni Schweiz (BA students).
