Anoush Ganjipour is a permanent researcher in philosophy at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique – École Normale Supérieure (Centre Jean Pépin).
He specializes in the Islamic intellectual tradition, particularly Islamic metaphysics, aesthetics, and political thought. In his recent works, he has focused on Islamic political theology and its metaphysical foundations. By exploring the Islamic traditions of philosophy, theology, and Sufism, he seeks to understand the theoretical elements underlying Islamic concepts of government, political order, community, and emancipation. Through a comparative approach, Ganjipour engages in a critical dialogue with both the Islamic tradition and continental philosophy in his work.

Among his publications are:
Parler sans détours : lettres sur Israël et la Palestine, co-authored with Jean-Claude Milner (Paris: Cerf, 2025), Monothéismes et politique : modernité, sécularisation, émancipation, edited by A. Ganjipour (Paris: CNRS Éditions, coll. « Alpha », 2022), L’ambivalence politique de l’islam : Pasteur ou Léviathan ? (Paris: Seuil, coll. « L’Ordre philosophique », 2021), Politique de l’exil : Giorgio Agamben et l’usage de la métaphysique, edited by Anoush Ganjipour (Paris: Lignes, 2019), Le réel et la fiction : essai de poétique comparée (Paris: Hermann, 2014).
