Pierre Serna

Pierre Serna is a French historian and intellectual known for his work on the history of ideas, particularly in relation to the French Revolution and its impact on modern political thought. He has been instrumental in organizing discussions and publications that engage with contemporary issues surrounding fascism and populism. Recently, he directed a collection of texts titled 'Contre les fascismes,' which reflects on the legacy of the late Zeev Sternhell, an influential historian of fascism. This publication was partly inspired by a colloquium held in Paris, emphasizing the importance of remembering Sternhell's contributions to the understanding of political extremism in the modern world.
