The book he published with Mikhail Xifaras, Éprouver l'universel, Essai de géophilosophie (Paris, Kimé, 1999), proposes a brief account of Japanese debates in 1930's on "Overcoming Modernity" from the perspective of a critique of contemporary, universal and communicative morals.

NAM is an association of the individuals who undertake non-violent counter-acts againt the trinity of Capitalist-Nation-State, by gathering the dispersed social movements in different sectors (labor, gender, environment, third world, art etc.) in view of organization of the non-capitalist economic associations.
