«L'histoire interdite» is the historical essay by Thierry Wolton, published by JC Lattès in paperback (221 pages, in French).
Wolton analyzes French collective memory and postwar taboos: the instrumentalization of the Resistance, the Vichy complex and selective amnesia about communism. Wolton connects these readings of the past with current morality and politics, and calls for renewing the right and freeing the left from archaisms.
Originally published in 1998 by JC Lattès, the book is set within the political history of France in the twentieth century and includes bibliographic references.
For readers interested in French historical memory, the legacy of Vichy and the debate on communism and National Socialism.
