La Fabrique Éditions is a French publishing house. It was started in 1998 by the writer and activist Éric Hazan.
History
La Fabrique was founded by Éric Hazan, who was a surgeon before becoming a publisher.[1] Hazan came from a family of publishers; his father founded Éditions Hazan, which Éric sold to the Hachette group in 1992 before starting La Fabrique as an independent house.[2]
The company is known for publishing political books. These often feature far-left ideas, including Marxism and anarchism.[3] Their books also focus on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
One of their most famous publications is The Coming Insurrection (2007) by the “Invisible Committee.” This book discusses the idea of a political uprising.
2023 London incident
In 2023, the company’s foreign rights manager, Ernest Moret, was arrested by British police while traveling to a book fair in London. He was questioned under anti-terrorism laws.[4] In 2024, the London Metropolitan Police reached a financial settlement with Moret after an independent report found that the arrest was not justified.[5]
