contents We study the Karoubi operator on the unnormalized chain complex of a paracyclic module; its restriction to the normalized chain complex has previously been considered by Dwyer and Kan, and in the cyclic case by Cuntz and Quillen. We obtain a direct proof of the Dold-Kan theorem for paracyclic modules of Dwyer and Kan, by directly relating the Karoubi operator to projection to the normalized subcomplex.
