His research focuses on the social, cultural, and urban history of France in the long nineteenth century, particularly state interventions in housing/hygiene, religious conflict in urban contexts, and environmental disasters. Current projects include a book on unsanitary housing inspectors in 19th-century France and a microhistorical study of the 1856 flood in southern France. He has also written on religious tensions in Roubaix and Catholic petitions in Alsatian cities.
Clement teaches modern British and European history (1780–1900) and supervises undergraduate and graduate research in topics like French Revolutionary festivals, urban history of Lyon, the Paris Commune, and British identity in southern France. His work bridges urban environmental disasters, religious conflict, and social policy.
