He has been active in the international doctoral school network in comparative studies Hermes since 2003, first as a doctoral student, now as member of the board, he has been running and interfaculty and interinstitutional research network on memory studies with an international outreach. He is also peer reviewer with important international journals (American Political Science Review, Orbis Litterarurn) and for ESF.

His third book, The New Human in Literature Visions of Changes in Body, Mind and Society after 1900, is in process with Continuum Press, and his complete bibliography is already longer and broader and that of many senior colleagues.
