I hold a PhD in political sciences. I am a junior researcher at the Institute for Political Science at the Centre for Social Sciences (CSS) at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre of Excellence. I work at the Department of Democracy and Political Theory, my main research area is political theory of migration, political obligation, artificial intelligence. My approaches are related to liberal, feminist, realist, and republican political theory.

I am an assistant professor at the Department of Human Rights and Politics at the Institute of Political and International Studies, Eötvös Lóránd University, Faculty of Social Sciences. I am currently teaching feminist political theory and a thesis seminar for BA level students.

I defended my Ph.D thesis in the Doctoral School of International Relations and Political Science at Corvinus University of Budapest. My doctoral research investigated the possibilities of creating what I call a Critical Cosmopolitan Care Approach to migration. My task has been to argue why the dominant public opinion and mainstream – primarily liberal and cosmopolitan – literature is unsuccessful in theorizing migration understood in the broader sense. My overall aim was to offer a coherent and consistent theoretical approach which (1) eschews methodological nationalism of contemporary normative theory in favor of a critical cosmopolitanism, and which (2) also criticizes the ‘host standpoint‘ of target states of immigration from a perspective of feminist care ethics that takes seriously human experience, interconnectedness, and real vulnerability of real people, and and gives equal consideration to the migrants’ viewpoints.

I earned my BA degree from Pázmány Péter Catholic University. I hold a master’s degree in Political Science from Corvinus University of Budapest. My MA thesis investigated political realist criticism of John Rawls and the so-called political moralism or ideal theory. During my MA studies, I authored my first article on Rawls and political realism in Politikatudományi Szemle. During my masters years I have been a member of The Paradox of Realism Research Group.

In 2019, I won the 1st prize at The National Scientific Students’ Associations Conference (OTDK) with my paper titled The Realist Criticism of Rawls.

I published articles in Magyar Filozófiai Szemle about Rawls and migration; and Politikatudományi Szemle about both a republican and a feminist approach to a normative political theory of migration and recently, I wrote an article on political obligation and migration. I also published an article about the problem of abstraction in political theory. In 2017, I won a stipend at The Institute of Political History and I became a member of its Social Theory Research Group. From 2017 to 2019, I was also a member of the Political Theory Research Group of Hungarian Academy of Sciences. In 2019, I held positions as External Fellow and Research Assistant of the Institute for Political Science of Hungarian Academy of Sciences (HAS), where my research focused on the topic of methodological nationalism. I have also been a member of the Ethics and Politics of Inclusion and Exclusion (EPIEX), which is a normative political theory research group at CSS (formerly known as HAS). I have a co-authored article on a political realist approach to artificial intelligence (AI).

I have won a publication stipend at CSS in 2019. I have also won a stipend from the New National Excellence Programme in 2019 and 2020 for doctoral students two times: one time for a project on the synthesis of republicanism and feminism in a corrective position for addressing migration, and another time for my project investigating migration from a perspective of political obligation.
