Research Overview
My main research expertise is on the First World War and its aftermath. Through the action of the International Committee of the Red Cross based in Geneva, Switzerland, I work on humanitarianism in Europe during and after the First World War. I have also been considering the impact of the unprecedented scale of the war on various aspects of French society long after its end. More recently, I am interested in the history of emotions and aim to decipher the emotional transformation toward the pain of others in the context of the development of international humanitarian law and the expansion of the Red Cross movement since the late 19th century.
