Biography

Early far-right activism

Jean-Gilles Malliarakis is the son of

National Front executive François Duprat.[2] He eventually stopped frequenting Occident in 1966 and was formally expelled from the group the next year.[3]

Whilst a student at

neofascist.[5] In 1969, he organized a meeting at Sciences Po celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Fasci Italiani di Combattimento's founding by Mussolini.[6] In May of that year, he was arrested after a left-wing student was grievously wounded during a fight between student activist groups. Malliarakis, who had been knocked out during the fight, was found unconscious by police forces and put in detention. He was eventually freed three weeks later.[7]

In 1970, he took part to the founding meeting of the neo-fascist group

Troisième Voie

In 1982, Malliarakis attempted to create a coalition with other far right groups such as

Poujadist syndicate Confédération de défense des commerçants et artisans,[10] and became a speaker at the right-wing station Radio Courtoisie.[13]

In 1991, the

Troisième Voie movement split after a conflict with Christian Bouchet's tendency.[14] Malliarakis later dissolved what was left of the movement and retired from front-line politics to concentrate on his work at Radio Courtoisie and to his activity as a book publisher under the imprint Éditions du Trident. He eventually adopted neo-liberal positions and joined Alain Madelin's Idées action movement.[15] In February 2007, after the death of station founder Jean Ferré, he left Radio Courtoisie as a disagreement with the policies of the radio's new director Henry de Lesquen.[16] He has since then continued his activity as book publisher and as an online politics commentator. He also works for the anticommunist think tank Institut d'histoire sociale.[17]
