Professor Julian JacksonEmeritus Professor of Modern French History Email: j.t.jackson@qmul.ac.ukProfileTeachingResearchPublicationsSupervisionPublic EngagementProfile My PhD from Cambridge University was a study of the impact of the 1930s Depression on French politics. All my subsequent research has centred on French history since the 1930s. I have written on the defeat of France in 1940, the German Occupation, homosexuality in postwar France and the ‘events’ of May 1968. I am currently writing a biography of de Gaulle.
