Résumé de l'exposé
am a pariah?. This is how Anna Politkovskaya defines herself in the beginning of a posthumous article published by The Guardian on October 14th, 2006. Seven days before, on October 7th, around 5 pm, she was murdered in her flat in still non-clarified circumstances. Her death occurred while she was working on an article dealing with torture in Chechnya. Anna Politkovskaya was a Russian journalist born in 1958 from a healthy family, whose father was a diplomat. ?I was a girl from a diplomatic family, a reader, a bit of a swot; I didn't know life at all." She became a journalist under the communist regime, which enabled her to travel throughout the country. Indeed, journalists were provided with an authorization to circulate freely in the country, which was something exceptional under the communist regime. During the period of Perestroika, Anna Politkovskaya switched to the independent press.

[...] Politkovskaya's life and testimony tell us about freedom of speech in contemporary Russia? In which way does her work enable us to apprehend the work of a ?dissident? woman and journalist in Putin's Russia? I will study A. Politkovskaya's life from two themes: the testimony she left on Chechen war, and her life as an enemy of the government, permanently threatened and obstructed in her work. A. Politkovskaya, a witness of the Chechen war, entirely dedicated to her job As a Russian journalist, A. [...]
[...] I offered her money but she didn't take All these pressures obviously violate fundamental rights to live and freedom of speech. Her liberty of investigation was obviously impeded, her access to information obstructed by the Kremlin, which tried to isolate her by excluding her from the official meetings. A life of secrecy and hidings, abruptly ended in mysterious circumstances: In spite of all attempts of obstruction from the government, A. Politkovskaya had become a very influent journalist in the end of her life. [...]
