After graduating from the École normale supérieure, he became assistant to Raymond Aron at the Collège de France. He was one of the founders of the quarterly Commentaire and remains a regular contributor.
Manent is a key figure in contemporary French political philosophy and his work has helped the rediscovery of the French liberal tradition. A eurosceptic[1] and a classical liberal, he has been called by The Weekly Standard "the most profound of the Euroskeptical philosophers".[2]
