Michel Eltchaninoff

Michel Eltchaninoff was born on May 19th, 1969 and is currently 56 years old. Michel Eltchaninoff was born in Paris, France.

Michel Eltchaninoff is a thinker, journalist, and author who does research into the actions and beliefs of famous people.

Following two stints in Russia at the French Embassy, he embarked on a career as an academician and taught for several years. He would then get a job with Philosophie magazine, where he helps people think deeply and explore ideas in addition to writing the column Strategy Games.

Michel has done a lot of research into the philosophies behind politics and power, particularly in Russia. For this reason, he helps his audience connect with leaders and events.

Michel Altchanoff’s writing has been described as surprising, smart, and clear. He usually shows how ideas and words have power, as he explores the references that Putin makes to Russian thinkers.

Much of the time, he invites his readers to explore the thinking that a leader adopts in order to make sense of what that means for the world.

In 2016, he became the founder of the organization Les nouvelles Dissidents, which was involved in several initiatives, including one to push for the release of Oleg Sentsov, the Ukrainian filmmaker who was held prisoner in Russia.

In 2015, Michel Eltchaninoff published his debut work, Inside the Mind of Vladimir Putin, in which he explores the major philosophies that have shaped Vladimir Putin.

He shows how Putin finds inspiration from the likes of Solzhenitsyn to Dostoevsky and Peter the Great to come up with his vision of Slavic pride, Orthodox morality, and strong leadership. He uses such ideas to unite 130 million Russians and respond to global changes.

He asserts that Putin is a storyteller who makes use of centuries of thought to shape how the world sees him and to guide the future of his nation.

In his second work, Inside the Mind of Marine Le Pen, Eltchaninoff looks into the motivations of the French politician Le Pen in addition to the Front National.

Under her leadership, the far-right party has been massively successful as it showcases a modern front even as it remains rooted in nationalist values. Using the interviews, French history, and her speeches, the author shows how Marine rebranded the party rather than transforming it.

She defines France by identifying its enemies, which she asserts are the EU, multiculturalism, and liberalism. Le Pen also identified with Russia and Vladimir Putin, which she believes provides an alternative to the liberalism of the West.

In 2022, Michel Eltchaninoff published a study of Russian cosmism titled Lenin Walked on the Moon, which was a blend of space dreams, spirituality, and science.

He shows the efforts of the early thinkers who had a strong desire to colonize other planets, live forever, and resurrect the dead. It was these ideas that shaped Soviet Russia and continue to influence the techies of Silicon Valley and modern-day Russia.

The work is a combination of rocket science and metaphysics, connecting immortality, space, and lives.
