Emmanuel Dreyfus – The Dreyfus Affair: A Familial Perspective
What did being Jewish mean for a French secular Jewish family that tried its utmost to be
integrated in the late 19th century French Republic? Emmanuel Dreyfus will draw from his
family history in discussing this Alsatian Jewish family’s flight in 1871 from Alsace, then
annexed by Germany, in order to remain French citizens, the infamous Dreyfus Affair,
World War II, and further assimilation after 1945 to today’s uncertainties. Emmanuel is a
Paris-based foreign policy expert, focusing on Russian defense and foreign policy.
