Biography

Who is Roger Garaudy?

French philosopher. Formerly a prominent communist author, he converted to Islam and wrote several books which have been controversial due to his anti-Zionist positions and denial of the Holocaust. He died on 13 June 2012, shortly before his 99th birthday. FrançaisFigure phare et philosophe du parti communiste, dont il est successivement député et sénateur, il en est exclu en 1970 après avoir pris fait et cause pour l’extrême gauche autogestionnaire en 1968 et dénoncé l’intervention militaire soviétique en Tchécoslovaquie. Pendant ses mandats parlementaires, il rencontre et se lie d’une profonde amitié avec l’abbé Pierre, député lui aussi, mais gaulliste. Son itinéraire spirituel est chaotique. Marxiste, il se convertit successivement au catholicisme, puis à l’islam. Plus surprenant : à partir de 1996 il fait parler de lui en épousant les thèses négationnistes qui lui valent dêtre condamné, le 27 février 1998, pour contestation de crimes contre l’humanité, diffamation raciale et incitation à la haine raciale. Son antisionisme radical l’avait conduit à comparer le sionisme au nazisme. Roger Garaudy est l’auteur de nombreux ouvrages, reflet de son parcours singulier.
