He became an libertarian socialist (anarchist) during the revolutionary upheavals in France in May 1968, when he was active in the worker-student alliance. He served several prison terms for his active solidarity with the Spanish and Portuguese anarchists struggling against the fascist dictatorships of Franco and Salazar. His uncompromising militancy put him on boss' blacklists.
He earned a diploma in 1993 for his work on Mikhail Bakunin (the "father" of anarcho- syndicalism) and then earned a doctorate for his work on anarchist history. He also prepared a work popularising Bakunin's ideas.
He was a worker militant, participating in both local and international struggles: the great British miners' strike of 1984-5, and work with French truck drivers and the unemployed. He founded the Spartacus group of the Francophone Anarchist Federation. For his friends and comrades he was warm, and, above all, always in solidarity.
