Biography[edit]

Alain Chouraqui is born on November 17th, 1949, in Casablanca, Morocco. He is the son of Sydney Chouraqui and Juliette Ayache. He is Emeritus research director at the National Center for Civic Research (CNRS) and Founding-President of the “Camp des Milles Foundation – Memory and Education” which permitted to open in 2012 the Memorial-Site of Camp des Milles[6][7]. This opening was the completion of a work started in 1982 with resistant fighters and deportees for the conservation of the last French internment and deportation still intact and its transformation in a place of remembrance, civic education and culture.

He is the head of the UNESCO Chair "Education to Citizenship, Human Sciences and convergence of memories" (coordination of universities in 14 countries, European, Arab, African and Asian). This Chair has been inaugurated on October 8th, 2015, at the Camp des Milles by the French President and the Director-General of UNESCO. The Chair has enabled the development of an international web of memorial institutions: “Memory at the service of education and citizenship” aiming to promote and bring closer memorial sites’ experiences to spread tools to understand the past and apply them in the present time to fight for democratic principles and against authoritarian derives, extremisms, racism and anti-Semitism. This web gathers around forty members, in France and abroad, such as the National Museum of Auschwitz-Birkenau (Poland), the Kigali Genocide Memorial (Rwanda), the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (United States), the Kazerne Dossin (Belgium), the Fossoli Camp (Italy), or the Conference House of Wannsee (Germany) and the Post-Conflict Research Center à Sarajevo (Bosnia-Herzegovina).

He is the author or editor of several scientific publications in France and abroad (direction and realization of seven personal works, 32 contributions and 174 articles, published in 12 distinct languages in 20 countries). He provides or has provided teaching and conferences in several French and foreign universities.

He coordinates several research programs at the national, European and international levels, and has organized more than 60 international scientific meetings. He has been elected –and reelected – President of the hiring board of Law and Political Sciences teachers of the Mediterranean University. He has been or is expert for several European and international organizations (BIT, European Commission, European Foundation of Dublin, UNESCO, etc.). From a multidisciplinary background (law, political sciences, sociology), Alain Chouraqui uses the approaches of all these subjects on the evolution of systems of rules and landmarks in groups or societies faced with crises or lasting destabilization and reconstruction. He applies this multidisciplinary approach to societal relationships and working ones in particular. He currently studies the question of a “European social model” and the creation of social rules at a global level.

During thirty years, he has worked on questions of democratic participation, included in the construction of European and global regulations. This has led him to be elected – and reelected- during seven years as President of the International Research Committee on Organizational and Democratic Participation (66 countries represented).

In this perspective, he created in 2010 the European Multidisciplinary Federative Institute « Rights, regulations and social transformations » of Aix-Marseille University, and founded in 2011 the collection Rights, regulations and actors of social transformations (DREAMS), at Peter Lang publisher, international scientific editor (Berne, Oxford, New-York, Francfort).

Alain Chouraqui has always worked to bring closer research programmes and major social issues throughout the knowledge chain; by taking them into account in the choice of research topics, by research processes with social actors and by a wide diffusion methodology of multidisciplinary results. The Museum memorial of Camp des Milles, of which he spearheaded the creation, provides a significant example of it.

His memory, scientific and citizen work has led him to more than 5000 interviews, articles or subjects about him in the media[8][9][10][11]

Over time, he dedicated himself to the associative world: literacy, humanitarian action, environment, local action, Human Rights, handicap…Thus, he currently is a Qualified Personality of the National Council of Cities (in charge of analyses and propositions about vulnerable neighborhoods and population) and member of the Scientific Council of LICRA (main anti-racist organisation in France).

Research subjects[edit]

From a multidisciplinary background (law, political sciences, sociology), Alain Chouraqui uses the approaches of all these subjects on the evolution of systems of rules and landmarks in groups or societies faced with crises or lasting destabilization and reconstruction. He applies this multidisciplinary approach to societal relationships and working ones in particular. He currently studies the question of a “European social model” and the creation of social rules at a global level.

Along the same lines, he coordinates a research, education and culture project on the only French internment and deportation camp still intact (“Memory of Camp des Milles”), with the objective of clarify and deepen, on historical sites and in coordination with the University, the research gains on deregulations, destabilizations and recurrent mechanisms, individual and social, which can lead to mass crimes, and to those leading to forms of resistance.
