At one of the last conferences where he participated, at the University of Leeds, Conference for Interdisciplinary Approaches to Politics (2016), he presented his latest work with intertwining psychoanalysis and political theory and political philosophy discussing the issue of nationalism. This phase of his work is elaborated in details in his book Restless Nationalism. And in the forthcoming Human Rights and Psychoanalysis (to be published autumn, 2018), he is developing the contemporary critique of human rights via the categories of psychoanalysis, following the Lacanian tradition and Slavoj Žižek's interpretation.
