Antoine is a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre of Governance and Human Rights, working on the “Communication Technology and Contentious Politics” research theme. He obtained his PhD in Politics and International Studies from the University of Cambridge in 2025, where he was working on the normative implications of the use of social media in contemporary democracies.
His research interests include radical-democratic thought, the politics of technology, media and communication studies, populism, and the history of 20th century political thought.
Before coming to Cambridge for his MPhil (obtained with distinction in 2020), Antoine studied at SciencesPo and Columbia University, from which he graduated summa cum laude with a dual B.A. in 2016. In his spare time, Antoine runs an NGO seeking to transform the Petite Ceinture — an abandoned railway line circling Paris — into a public park.
