Political positions

Elisabeth Roudinesco has taken a public political position since 1997 - she advocated the right of homosexual couples to adopt children. She is opposed to positive discrimination (especially against the Chiennes de garde ). She spoke out in favor of a headscarf ban in schools. Eventually she took sides in numerous debates on secularity , cloning, genetics, etc. In particular, she spoke out against the expertise of the Institut national de la santé et de la recherche médicale (INSERM) on the subject of psychotherapy . She was one of the first to sign the Pas de zéro de conduite petition , which opposes early pathologizing examinations of potentially deviant behavior in three-year-old children.

Legal dispute

Roudinesco, along with the publishing house Gallimard and Claude Lanzmann , was sued by the right-wing Club de l'Horloge for insult after she had accused the club of covert anti-Semitism in an article .

The same thing happened on the occasion of the book by Jacques Bénesteau . On the complaint of Bénesteau and the Club de l'Horloge there was a trial before a criminal court, by which she was acquitted on June 2, 2005. Henry de Lesquen, President of the Club de l'Horloge, appealed. The judgment of the first instance was confirmed in March 2006. The Club de l'Horloge appealed and was dismissed by the appellate court on March 6, 2007.
