Rachid Mimouni (InArabic:رشيد ميموني) (20 November 1945 – 12 February 1995) was an Algerian writer, teacher and human rights activist.

Mimouni wrote novels describing Algerian society in a realist style. He was threatened by Islamic militants for his stance against a movement which he described as being based on archaic ideas, irrelevant in the present time.[1]

Biography[edit]

Rachid Mimouni was born in Boudouaou, 30 km from Algiers to a family of poor peasants.[2]

Mimouni studied science at the University of Algiers before becoming a teacher at the École supérieure du commerce (business school) in Algiers. He was president of the Kateb Yacine foundation and he also held the position of vice-president at Amnesty International. He fled Algeria for France in 1993 to escape the civil war and the assassinations of intellectuals. He died in Paris in 1995 of hepatitis.[3]
