Caroline Barbary

Post-doctoral researcher

Caroline Barbary is a Postdoctoral researcher of the ERC StG project LIVE-AR. As part of this project, she is working on the biographical consequences of Moroccan activists who participated in the February 20th movement. She holds a PhD in Political Sociology from Panthéon-Sorbonne. Her PhD thesis focused on the study of networks of revolutionary youth in Egypt, their forms of collective action and their recompositions during the period 2011-2017. From an in-depth empirical work and a theoretical perspective combining subaltern studies and sociology of mobilizations, she reconstructed the biographical trajectories of a multitude of actors, which she articulated to the organizational dynamics of parties and informal collectives, and to the political reconfigurations of the revolutionary and post-revolutionary period. After her PhD she followed the Early Career program funded by the Arab Council for the Social Sciences (ACSS) and she was hosted at the CEDEJ in Cairo.
