He was the brother of the Catholic theoretician Louis Salleron. He was a great lover of the French language, but was also a lover of regional diversity, and supported preservation of local cultures such as Breton, Occitan and Basque.

Paul Sérant died on 2 October 2002 in Avranches, Manche.{{sfn|Paul Sérant ... BnF}} ThoughtPaul Sérant was not part of the literary world, and was not well known to the public, but wrote prolifically. He published novels that reflected his personal experiences in the post-war period, and was interested in the mystical and esoteric writings of George Gurdjieff.{{sfn|Paul Sérant, le franc Européen}} At first he was interested in the ideas of traditionalist thinkers such as René Guénon. Later he devoted himself to the study of ideologies, the crisis of civilization and regionalism.{{sfn|Paul Serant – lecteurs.com}} Paul Sérant was a penetrating and independent thinker who always challenged othodox opinions of both the left and the right. He wrote of the intellectuals who had collaborated with the German occupiers, and of Portugal under the dictatorship of Salazar. In the early 1970s he engaged in a vigorous debate with the great journalist Louis Pauwels, whom he considered to optimisitic, too right-wing and too western.{{sfn|Paul Sérant, le franc Européen}} Paul Sérant loved the French language and was proud of its global usage. He said he would defend the language for its own sake even if it were only used by a small community. In his last work, Les enfants de Jacques Cartier, he explored the history of Americans of French ethnicity including Québécois, Acadians, French-speaking New Englanders, Franco-Indian Métis from Western Canada and Cajuns from Louisiana. The book also talked of French-speaking communities in Wallonia, Switzerland and the Aosta Valley. He said the Jacobin state was the reason for the lack of interest in ethnic French communities outside France, and for persecution of alien cultures within France.{{sfn|Paul Sérant, le franc Européen}} Paul Sérant was a close follower of Simone Weil, and believed in the importance of local roots. He adopted the saying of the Portuguese poet Miguel Torga: "Universal is local without walls". He defended regional cultures such as the Bretons, Occitans and Basques. He saw no problem with these peoples rediscovering the wealth of their original languages, which could not threaten the French language. He wrote, "If I refuse the Bretons the right to speak Breton, I expose myself to one day being refused the right to speak French." In his book La France des minorités (1965) Paul Sérant celebrated and defended the diversity of the regional communities of Flanders, Brittany, the Basque Country, Occitania, Catalonia, Corsica, Alsace and Lorraine. He denounced the destructive Jacobinism that would force all the provinces into the same uniform mold, seeing intolerance of internal diversity as equivalent to hatred of foreign nations and refusal to accept new ideas.{{sfn|Paul Sérant, le franc Européen}} Paul Sérant believed that ethnicism, with its respect for a diversity of cultures, was the opposite of racism, which tried to exalt one community at the expense of others. He thought the European Federation, starting as a federation of states, could evolve into a federation of ethnic groups in which the unitary French state would disappear. {{sfn|Paul Sérant, le franc Européen}} He wrote: {{quote|Europe almost became French with Napoleon, and almost became German with Hitler. In either case, it would have been only a subjugated Europe. The Europe we want must be neither French nor German, but European, that is to say, it must allow development of all its peoples and all its cultures. More varied than any other continent, it must be able to make its unity without sacrificing anything of that diversity which constitutes its most astonishing privilege.{{sfn|Paul Sérant, le franc Européen}}}}PublicationsPublications include:{{sfn|Paul Sérant ...
