His research has focused on Spanish and Catalan political and cultural history in the contemporary era, particularly during the Franco regime. Currently, he is a member of the research project "Franco regionalism from Catalonia: centripetal practices and discourses" (PID2021-125227NB-I00), which studies the different active agents who, to a greater or lesser degree of complicity with the Franco dictatorship, articulated ideologically and politically their interests and their particularities. Regiocat is part of IdentiCat, an interdisciplinary research group made up of sociolinguists, historians and specialists in cultural policies, literature, art and cultural studies who are interested in the contemporary processes of identity construction and articulation of subjectivities, with a predominant focus on Catalan identity.
