Book The Politics of Algeria

Download or read book The Politics of Algeria written by Yahia H. Zoubir and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together Algerian-based scholars and Algerians in the diaspora to address the many, salient issues facing Algeria, the largest country in Africa and the Middle East. Until February 22, 2019, Algeria looked like the beacon of stability in the region, for the authoritarian regime eluded the so-called Arab Spring, which resulted in chaos in a number of countries in the Middle East and North Africa. The authors of the chapters in this book are a mix of sociologists, economists, political scientists, linguists, and international relations specialists who have used the theoretical and methodological instruments in their respective fields to decipher the complexities that characterise the Algerian political system. In the domestic part, some of the chapters deal with issues seldom tackled in Maghreb studies, namely, the language and identities issues, which are at the forefront of the protest movement since February 2019. Other chapters analyse the role of the elites, the emergence of the new entrepreneurs, the future of energy, gender, media, and human rights, the predicament of the rentier state, and the resource curse. The international relations part examines Algeria’s roles in the Mediterranean and in the Sahel, the strategic partnership with China, the complicated relations with France, and the relations with Iran and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). Exploring Algeria’s transformation, this collection is an original addition to the books on the Maghreb that will be a key resource to students and scholars interested in the developing world, the Middle East, and North Africa.

Book A Desert Named Peace

  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2011
  • ISBN : 0231154933
  • Pages : 442 pages

Download or read book A Desert Named Peace written by Benjamin Claude Brower and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-nineteenth century, French colonial leaders in Algeria started southward into the Sahara, beginning a fifty-year period of violence. Lying in the shadow of the colonization of northern Algeria, which claimed the lives of over a million people, French empire in the Sahara sought power through physical force as it had elsewhere; yet violence in the Algerian Sahara followed a more complicated logic than the old argument that it was simply a way to get empire on the cheap. A Desert Named Peace examines colonial violence through multiple stories and across several fields of research. It presents four cases: the military conquests of the French army in the oases and officers' predisposition to use extreme violence in colonial conflicts; a spontaneous nighttime attack made by Algerian pastoralists on a French village, as notable for its brutality as for its obscure causes; the violence of indigenous forms of slavery and the colonial accommodations that preserved it during the era of abolition; and the struggles of French Romantics whose debates about art and politics arrived from Paris with disastrous consequences. Benjamin Claude Brower uses these different perspectives to reveal the unexpected causes of colonial violence, such as France's troubled revolutionary past and its influence on the military's institutional culture, the aesthetics of the sublime and its impact on colonial thinking, the ecological crises suffered by Saharan pastoralists under colonial rule, and the conflicting paths to authority inherent in Algerian Sufism. Directly engaging a controversial history, A Desert Named Peace offers an important backdrop to understanding the Algerian war for independence (1954-1962) and Algeria's ongoing internal war, begun in 1992, between the government and armed groups that claim to fight for an Islamist revolution.

Book La France et l   Alg  rie   le  ons d   histoire

Download or read book La France et l Alg rie le ons d histoire written by Frédéric Abécassis and published by INRP. This book was released on 2007 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À l’heure où les enjeux de mémoire investissent l’espace public, l’histoire de l’Algérie coloniale devient très souvent le modèle des tensions entre histoire et mémoire, et l’école se trouve au centre des débats. Fruit d’une partie des réflexions engagées à l’occasion d’un colloque organisé à Lyon en juin 2006 par l’ENS-LSH, en partenariat avec l’INRP et l’IUFM de l’académie de Lyon, cet ouvrage entend faire l’état des travaux sur les questions scolaires au cœur de l’histoire des relations franco-algériennes de 1830 à nos jours. L’itinéraire historique retenu se propose d’accompagner le lecteur de l’enseignement en situation coloniale à l’enseignement de la colonisation. Quel enseignement et quelles modalités éducatives prévalaient dans l’Algérie coloniale ? Quels enjeux de mémoire pèsent sur l’écriture de l’histoire des relations algéro-françaises ? Quels sont les contenus scolaires et les pratiques de classe actuelles concernant cette question d’histoire encore vive ? C’est ce dont veulent rendre compte les textes réunis dans ce volume, loin des enjeux de mémoire et des polémiques idéologiques.

Book How the Church Under Pius XII Addressed Decolonization

Download or read book How the Church Under Pius XII Addressed Decolonization written by Marialuisa Lucia Sergio and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By paying attention to Algerian Independence, this book reconstructs the action of the Catholic Church regarding the issues of the spread of Islam in colonies, to Arab nationalism, Marxist propaganda in non-European countries, and the effects of the Algerian crisis upon the French political system. The complex relations between the Holy See and France, as well as those between the Vatican and the Episcopates and clergy of the overseas territories, are vital aspects of decolonisation, a topic which, to date, has been overlooked by historiography because of the impossibility of accessing documents relating to the pontificate of Pius XII (1939-1958) held in the Vatican archives. The opening in March 2020 of the archives of Pius XII, the Pope who had succeeded in imposing the strategic role of the Holy See upon the international scene, has made a vast amount of unpublished documentary material available to scholars. This book is useful for all students and scholars interested in the Cold War, the history of contemporary Europe, the history of the Church, postcolonial studies, and religious phenomenon in post-World War II Europe.

Book Race in France

    Book Details:
  • Author : Herrick Chapman
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 2004
  • ISBN : 9781571816795
  • Pages : 276 pages

Download or read book Race in France written by Herrick Chapman and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars across disciplines on both sides of the Atlantic have recently begun to open up, as never before, the scholarly study of race and racism in France. These original essays bring together in one volume new work in history, sociology, anthropology, political science, and legal studies. Each of the eleven articles presents fresh research on the tension between a republican tradition in France that has long denied the legitimacy of acknowledging racial difference and a lived reality in which racial prejudice shaped popular views about foreigners, Jews, immigrants, and colonial people. Several authors also examine efforts to combat racism since the 1970s.

Book Roman Military Architecture on the Frontiers

Download or read book Roman Military Architecture on the Frontiers written by Rob Collins and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman army was one of the most astounding organizations in the ancient world, and much of the success of the Roman empire can be attributed to its soldiers. Archaeological remains and ancient texts provide detailed testimonies that have allowed scholars to understand and reconstruct the army’s organization and activities. This interest has traditionally worked in tandem with the study of Roman frontiers. Historically, the early imperial period, and in particular the emergence of the frontiers, has been the focus of research. During those investigations, however, the remains of the later Roman army were also frequently encountered, if not always understood. Recent decades have brought a burgeoning interest in not only the later Roman army, but also late antiquity more widely. It is the aim of this volume to demonstrate that while scholars grappling with the late Roman army may want for a rich corpus of inscriptions and easily identifiable military installations, research is revealing a dynamic, less-predictable force that was adapting to a changing world, in terms of both external threats and its own internal structures. The dynamism and ingenuity of the late Roman army provides a breath of fresh air after the suffocating uniformity of its forbears. The late Roman army was a vital and influential element in the late antique empire. Having evolved through the 3rd century and been formally reorganized under Diocletian and Constantine, the limitanei guarded the frontiers, while the comitatenses provided mobile armies that were fielded against external enemies and internal threats. The transformation of the early imperial army to the late antique army is documented in the rich array of texts from the period, supplemented by a perhaps surprisingly rich archaeological record.
