Biography

His doctoral thesis in history, under the joint supervision of the EHESS and the Paris-Sorbonne University, focused on contemporary Egypt, while his thesis in mathematics, argued at the University of Paris-Sud, was devoted to linear algebra. Thereafter, he turned his research and publications on the history of religion (Samaritans, [2] etc.), on contemporary Middle East and Central and East Asia. He is known to be a great connoisseur on issues related to the Syrian-Lebanese emigration in Egypt that occurred from the middle of the 19th.[3]

In 2001 he was entrusted the responsibility of chronicling geopolitics in the monthly Afrique-Asie.[4]

Habib Tawa is secretary to several scientific societies (Société d'études samaritaines 1995–2008, Société des amis des manuscrits et études karaïtes since 1995) and member of the Société Asiatique[5] and the Société mathématique de France.
