Yann Fouéré (26 July 1910 – 20 October 2011) was a French essayist, theorist of Breton nationalism, and political activist. Over his lifetime, he was a propagandist, high-ranking civil servant, newspaper editor, essayist, and founder of political parties.
In 1946, he was convicted in absentia for collaboration in France due to his involvement in Brest's press under German occupation. However, he was acquitted and rehabilitated by a military tribunal in 1955. He is the author of L'Europe aux cent drapeaux (1968), which was translated into multiple languages.
