I am Laetitia Strauch-Bonart, a French writer and editor. I write on politics and society.
A journalist and columnist at the French weekly Le Point, I am the editor in chief of the opinion & debates pages and of Phébé, a weekly review of interesting ideas published in academic research.
With essayist and journalist Peggy Sastre, I co-present Les Contrariantes, a bi-monthly podcast dedicated to contrarian conversations.
I am interested in political philosophy, intellectual history, and cognitive sciences and psychology.
I was born into a family of musicians, and had the chance to be introduced very young to arts and literature. I used to dance argentin tango and flamenco, and still like them very much. I practice bodybuilding and weightlifting.
I graduated from the Ecole normale supérieure Ulm in philosophy and from “Sciences Po” in public affairs, both in Paris.
I live in London with my beloved husband and daughters, and have strong roots in Paris, my birthplace.
