Jean-Pierre Azéma

historian France

Jean-Pierre Azéma was a prominent French historian specializing in World War II, particularly the Vichy regime and the French Resistance. Born on September 30, 1937, in Paris, he was deeply influenced by his family's history and the political context of his upbringing. His academic journey began at Sciences Po, where he was significantly impacted by René Rémond's seminar on Vichy in 1967. Azéma became known for his critical stance against works he considered lacking in rigor and objectivity, notably targeting Robert Aron's 'Histoire de Vichy' as a poor model for research. His extensive work has contributed greatly to the understanding of this tumultuous period in French history, and he passed away in Paris on July 14 at the age of 87.
