“Nothing justifies this torrent of mud poured on him”.
Foreword by Michel Wieviorka
The anti-Semite. This is how Pascal Boniface is perceived by many people, Jews and non-Jews alike. This dishonorable characterization is in total contradiction with his personal fight against racism and anti-Semitism.
He and his family have been threatened. The research center he heads, whose work is authoritative both nationally and internationally, has come close to disappearing on several occasions, because he dared to criticize a foreign government. Regularly dragged through the mud for the past fifteen years, he has never written or uttered a sentence that could justify such treatment.
That such an affair should take place in France seems incredible, but it’s real. In a precise, touching and lively autobiographical account, Pascal Boniface draws conclusions about the deleterious effects of importing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to France.
Pascal Boniface (@PascalBoniface; www.pascalboniface.com), founder and director of IRIS (wwww.iris-france.org), is a lecturer at the Institute of European Studies at Paris 8 University.
