Sean Gervasi

Sean Gervasi, born 1933 - died 19 June 1996, a US citizen, was an economic advisor to John F. Kennedy in the White House, an expert in Yugoslav affairs, and taught economics at Oxford, the LSE, the London School of Economics, in France at the Sorbonne and the University of Paris Vincennes. His father, Frank Gervasi was a world-renowned foreign correspondent and author.

Gervasi was trained at the University of Geneva, Oxford, Great Britain, and Cornell University in the US. He resigned from the Kennedy administration in 1961, in protest, after the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba.

Gervasi also worked as a journalist, contributing to a wide range of Publications from the French and international publication Le Monde Diplomatique to the US based New York Amsterdam News.

He was a frequent commentator on the listener-supported Pacifica radio station WBAI in New York. In 1976, Gervasi broke the story of how the U.S. government was covertly arming the apartheid regime in South Africa.[citation needed]

Although a long standing respected figure on the left, Gervasis position on the breakup of Yugoslavia alienated Gervasi from much of the liberal and progressive movement who largely went along with the center-right wing political views on the media line that Serbia and the Slobodan Milosevic regime was largely to blame for the conflicts that followed the breakup of the Yugoslav republic .

Gervasi died in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, on June 19 1996, from cancer at 63 years of age.
