Life

Moreau studied philosophy and history at the Universities of Paris IV and Paris X . In 1978 he was at Jacques Droz at the University of Paris I on "fighting community Revolutionary Nazis" by Otto Strasser to Dr. phil. PhD. He studied political science at the Institut d'études politiques de Paris and completed his habilitation in 1984 with the work accompanied by Alfred Grosser The National Democratic Party of Germany in the Political Life of the Federal Republic of Germany 1964–1976 .

From 1985 he worked as a scientist for the Center national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), temporarily he was research director in Paris and Berlin. In 1987 he became a member of the French Foreign Ministry .

He was a fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and the German Research Foundation . Moreau conducted intensive research on left-wing extremism and from 1994 to 1998 was a member of the study commission “Overcoming the Consequences of the SED Dictatorship in the Process of German Unity”.

Moreau's work focuses on left-wing parties in Europe, and increasingly the anti-globalization movement. He often wrote studies and essays on behalf of the party-affiliated foundations of the CDU / CSU - sometimes directly for the Union parties or their structures - in which he accused the Democratic Socialism Party (PDS) in particular of being a left-wing extremist party . He commented several times for Bayernkurier , the CSU's party newspaper. In connection with the affair surrounding the observation of the Left Party MP Bodo Ramelow, Moreau admitted that he had contacts with the Thuringian Office for the Protection of the Constitution, but denies that he was provided with information by this authority. Under the pseudonym Hermann Gleumes, Moreau wrote for the CDU-affiliated student organization RCDS , the East German CDU state associations and the CSU-affiliated Hanns Seidel Foundation in publications directed against the left, especially the PDS. Under the pseudonym Peter Christian Segall, Moreau wrote articles and brochures for the Hanns Seidel Foundation and the Thuringian Christian Democratic Workers' Union (CDA) in which he heavily criticized the Left Party and its affiliated trade unionists. The fact that he quoted himself under his pseudonyms earned him the criticism of having acted scientifically dubious. From 1999 Moreau gave several lectures at symposia of the Thuringian State Office for the Protection of the Constitution and in 2002 was the scientific curator of such an event. He also published in the Eron Verlagsgesellschaft , which became known as a cover company of the Thuringian State Office in a trial before the Erfurt Regional Court. He was a speaker at the Veldensteiner Kreis .
