Annie Kriegel, née Annie Becker (born 9 September 1926, Paris; died 26 August 1995, Paris) was a French historian, a leading expert on communist studies and the history of Communism, a cofounder (1982) of the academic journal Communisme (with Stéphane Courtois), and a columnist for Le Figaro.[1]
As a student, Kriegel was a member of the French Communist Party but changed her political views after the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956 and became an outspoken anticommunist.
Her brother was the historian Jean-Jacques Becker, and she was married to Arthur Kriegel, a brother of Maurice Kriegel-Valrimont. The Association d'études et de recherches en sciences sociales Annie Kriegel is named in her honour.
