Dominique Smil Moïsi was a Jewish-French academic specializing in the Middle East who was panelist for the discussion about Consequences of the War Against Terrorism at the 2002 Bilderberg.[1] Given his other public positions, he was presumably arguing the "soft" position given the Bilderbergers, for upholding liberal values, against Richard Perle, who presumably argued the "hard" position of "clash of civilizations", military invasions and a police state.
Background
Moïsi was born on October 21, 1946 in Neuilly-sur-Seine, Paris. He is the only son of Jules Moïsi (Jules Moise) born on July 3, 1902 in Paris.
Education
Dominique Moïsi attended lycee Buffon, then studied Political science at the Sciences Po Paris and law at the Panthéon-Assas University. He followed Raymond Aron's seminars at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales.
Turning to research, he completed a doctorate in law at the Panthéon-Sorbonne University, and a doctorate in political science at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, under the supervision of Saul Friedländer]. He went to Harvard University thanks to a grant from the Arthur Sachs Foundation, proposed by Roger-Gérard Schwartzenberg, and attended the Harvard Center for European Studies founded by Stanley Hoffmann.[2]
Career
He taught at the École nationale d'administration (ENA), the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, and the Sciences Po Paris. He was editor in chief of Politique étrangère. He taught at Harvard University and the College of Europe. He was also a professor at King's College London.
He recruited to the French Institute of International Relations (Ifri) by Raymond Aron[3], as well as to the Montaigne Institute.[4][2]
After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, he aroused attention as one of the first French commentators to welcome the conceivable end of Germany's division as an opportunity for Europe.[5]
During the 1990s Timothy Garton Ash, Michael Mertes and Dominique Moïsi wrote several "trilateral" (British-German-French) pleas in favour of a combined eastward enlargement and institutional modernisation of the EU.[6]
In May 2001, the Brookings Institution published an English version of his book France in an Age of Globalization, a book-length interview with French foreign minister, Hubert Vedrine, where the minister used the term hyperpuissance - "hyperpower" to describe the United States.[7]
He was a panelist for the discussion about Consequences of the War Against Terrorism at the 2002 Bilderberg.[1] Given his other public positions[8][9], he was presumably the "soft" position given the Bilderbergers, arguing for upholding liberal values, against Richard Perle, who presumably argued the "hard" position of "clash of civilizations", military invasions and a police state.
Moïsi was a member of the International Advisory Council of the Moscow School of Political Studies[10] and of the European Council on Foreign Relations.[11] Moïsi regularly contributes op-ed articles and essays to the Financial Times, Foreign Affairs, George Soros' Project Syndicate as well as Die Welt and Der Standard.
