Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il a été fait depuis plusieurs années, en Algérie comme dans toute l’Afrique, un grand usage du mot « socialisme ». Tout au long de la guerre de libération, le FLN avait affirmé qu’il entendait construire un socialisme algérien. En prenant le pouvoir après les accords d’Evian A. Ben Bella a ouvertement annoncé son intention d’entrer dans cette voie. En deux ans, des mesures très importantes ont été prises : En 1963 les « décrets de mars » ont institué l’autogestion ouvrière et paysanne ; un « secteur socialiste » a été ouvert ; la Réforme agraire a été lancée. Cela est-il suffisant pour déclarer l’Algérie « socialiste » ? Voici donc un premier bilan : Y a-t-il déjà participation des masses algériennes à la gestion du pays et à l’activité politique ? L’appareil d’Etat est-il démocratiquement contrôlé par le peuple algérien ? Le Parti unique, le FLN, a-t-il une vie réelle ? Le socialisme en question est-il compatible avec la coopération telle qu’elle est pratiquée, et la permanence des grandes sociétés européennes sur le sol algérien ? Gérard Chaliand, qui participa à la création de l’hebdomadaire algérien Révolution africaine dont il fut plus d’un an le rédacteur en chef adjoint, et qui est l’auteur d’études sur les problèmes politiques des pays sous-développés (notamment dans la revue Partisans) répond clairement à ces questions, au-delà de toute polémique.

Book excerpt: CETTE ETUDE MICRO-HISTORIQUE CONSISTE A ECRIRE L'HISTOIRE DU PARTI SOCIALISTE S.F.I.O (SECTION FRANCAISE DE L'INTERNATIONALE OUVRIERE) NON A TRAVERS SON APPAREIL CENTRAL MAIS EN METTANT EN VALEUR SES INSTANCES DE BASE. ELLE PREND POUR LIEU DE RECHERCHE L'ALGERIE ENTRE 1920 ET 1954, DATES MARQUANT DEUX EVENEMENTS IMPORTANTS: LE CONGRES DE TOURS ET L'INSURRECTION ALGERIENNE. POUR LA S.F.I.O, L'ALGERIE EST PLUS UN RESERVOIR ELECTORAL QU'UN TERRITOIRE SUSCEPTIBLE DE DEVENIR UN JOUR SOCIALISTE. LES FEDERATIONS SOCIALISTES ALGERIENNES PARTICIPENT A TOUTES LES ELECTIONS MEME LORSQUE LEURS CHANCES SONT REDUITES. LES AUTOCHTONES SUBISSENT PEU LES INFLUENCES SOCIALISTES. NEANMOINS, QUELQUES MUSULMANS ADHERENT AU PARTI SOCIALISTE POUR ECHAPPER A LA REPRESSION TOUT EN EVOLUANT DANS LE VOISINAGE IMMEDIAT DU NATIONALISME ALGERIEN. CET ACTE REPOND EGALEMENT A LEUR DESIR TRES PROFOND DE REJOINDRE UN PARTI QUI EST POUR EUX UN SYMBOLE DE LA DEMOCRATIE ET DE LA LIBERTE DONT ILS SONT PRIVES. CERTAINS D'ENTRE EUX QUITTENT LA S.F.I.O DES QUE CELLE-CI NE REPOND PAS A CES CRITERES. LES UNS SE RETIRENT DEFINITIVEMENT DE LA POLITIQUE TANDIS QUE D'AUTRES REJOIGNENT L'U.D.M.A DE FERHAT ABBAS ET LE F.L.N PAR LA SUITE. LES SOCIALISTES ALGERIENS INTEGRENT L'OEUVRE COLONIALE DANS LEUR IDEOLOGIE. ILS JUSTIFIENT LEUR POSITION PAR DES CONSIDERATIONS MORALES ET DES MOTIVATIONS ECONOMIQUES. LEUR POLITIQUE ALGERIENNE N'A PRESQUE PAS CHANGE AU FIL DES ANNEES. LA PARENTHESE OUVERTE EN 1946-1947 POUR DEMANDER UN STATUT DE L'ALGERIE PROCHE DE CELUI DES NATIONALISTES ALGERIENS MODERES EST RAPIDEMENT FERMEE FACE AUX RETICENCES DU GOUVERNEMENT PAUL RAMADIER ET LE RAPATRIEMENT DU GOUVERNEUR GENERAL YVES CHATAIGNEAU. EN EFFET, LES SOCIALISTES ALGERIENS SOUTENAIENT TOUJOURS L'ASSIMILATION. DE 1944 JUSQU'A 1947, ILS INSISTENT SUR L'APPLICATION DE L'ORDONNANCE DU 7 MARS 1944. LA REVENDICATION PRINCIPALE DEVIENT ENSUITE LA MISE EN PRATIQUE DU STATUT DU 20 SEPTEMBRE 1947. LES SOCIALISTES NE POUVAIENT EN REALITE FAIRE UNE AUTRE POLITIQUE QUE CELLE DES RADICAUX ET DES RADICAUX-SOCIALISTES, TRES INFLUENTS EN ALGERIE, SOUVENT PARTENAIRES ET ALLIES POLITIQUES. EN EFFET, LA S.F.I.O EST COINCEE ENTRE CES PARTIS ET LE PARTI COMMUNISTE DU COTE EUROPEEN, LE P.P.A ET L'U.D.M.A DU COTE MUSULMAN. SE SITUANT AU CENTRE, ELLE SE TROUVE SOUVENT DANS UNE POSITION DELICATE

Download or read book Algeria written by Martin Evans and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-14 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After liberating itself from French colonial rule in one of the twentieth century's most brutal wars of independence, Algeria became a standard-bearer for the non-aligned movement. By the 1990s, however, its revolutionary political model had collapsed, degenerating into a savage conflict between the military and Islamist guerillas that killed some 200,000 citizens. In this lucid and gripping account, Martin Evans and John Phillips explore Algeria's recent and very bloody history, demonstrating how the high hopes of independence turned into anger as young Algerians grew increasingly alienated. Unemployed, frustrated by the corrupt military regime, and excluded by the West, the post-independence generation needed new heroes, and some found them in Osama bin Laden and the rising Islamist movement. Evans and Phillips trace the complex roots of this alienation, arguing that Algeria's predicament-political instability, pressing economic and social problems, bad governance, a disenfranchised youth-is emblematic of an arc of insecurity stretching from Morocco to Indonesia. Looking back at the pre-colonial and colonial periods, they place Algeria's complex present into historical context, demonstrating how successive governments have manipulated the past for their own ends. The result is a fractured society with a complicated and bitter relationship with the Western powers-and an increasing tendency to export terrorism to France, America, and beyond.

Download or read book State And Society In Algeria written by John P Entelis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 11 January 1992 senior military officers forced President Chadli Benjedid to resign; canceled the second round of legislative elections and annulled the results of the first round, which saw the opposition Islamic Salvation Front (FIS) achieve a major electoral victory; and imposed a year-long state of siege. Constitutional government was replaced by an army-dominated so-called Higher State Council responsive to no one but itself. In the weeks and months that followed further draconian measures were undertaken intended to subvert the incipient democratic process that Algeria had been experiencing in the several years following the deadly riots of October 1988. As part of the army's effort to regain control of state and society, it reined in the free-wheeling press, abolished the country's most popular political party (FIS), dissolved the National Assembly, and reimposed on civil society the apparatus of the omnipresent state security system (mukhabarat).

Download or read book Algeria written by Kay Adamson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the extent to which the 1991-2 crisis in Algeria had its origins in the competing ideologies and policy choices of the Boumediene era (1965-78). In post-independence Algeria, the post-World War II French statist model on the one hand, and, on the other, the Soviet model of the planned economy were juxtaposed on the contradictions stemming from Algeria's colonial and pre-colonial history, the development of nationalist ideas and, finally, the creation of the Front de Liberation Nationale in 1954. These unresolved conflicts overshadowed independence and resulted in the establishment of the Boumediene Presidency in 1965. The economic problems inherited from the colonial period absorbed policy-makers in this crucial post-independence period. However, the failure of the economy to deliver on its original promises, and the lack of control of cultural and ideological issues are shown to be the foundation of the conflicts of the 1990s.

Download or read book The Call From Algeria written by Robert Malley and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The speed with which Algeria has gone from symbol of revolutionary socialism to Islamic battleground has confounded most observers. Charting Algeria's political evolution from the turn of the century to the present, Robert Malley explores the historical and intellectual underpinnings of the current crisis. His analysis helps makes sense of the civil war that is tearing Algeria apart. Using contemporary Algerian politics as a case study of the intellectual movement labeled "Third Worldism," Malley's thoughtful analysis also elucidates the broader transformations affecting countries of the Third World that once embraced ideologies of state-centered radical change. Malley focuses on the interplay between politics, economics, and ideology to explain the rise, essential components, and precipitous decline of Third Worldism—a movement that attracted scholars and activists in both the developed and underdeveloped worlds from the mid 1950s to the mid 1980s. He relates the disillusionment with Third Worldism to the growing appeal in the Third World of economic liberalism, versions of political pluralism, and ideological movements that threaten the very existence of the central state. At a time when the public increasingly is associating countries of the less developed world with Islamism, tribalism, and ethnic warfare, The Call from Algeria challenges our assumptions and offers a new perspective.

Download or read book Socialisme ou Barbarie An Anthology written by Cornelius Castoriadis and published by ERIS. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOCIALISME OU BARBARIE (1948–67) was a revolutionary group whose journal of the same name helped inspire France's May '68 student-worker rebellion and influenced generations of radicals worldwide. This Anthology, for the first time in print in the English language, restores the collective nature of the group's adventure, where manual and intellectual workers creatively, and not without profound disagreements, reflected and acted together in anticipation of a non-hierarchical, self-governing society. The group radically reoriented critical revolutionary theory by affirming how social change emerges through ordinary people's everyday lives and struggles. In a world divided into two competing bureaucratic-capitalist camps, the autonomous grassroots response to rationalized forms of outside control (State-corporation-trade union-political party) would be workers' management – a conclusion stunningly confirmed, against traditional Left expectations, by the workers' revolts of 1953 and 1956 in the East, and by increasingly widespread challenges to established organizational forms in the 1960s in the West. These texts not only examine the overall crisis of systems of domination, but explore their creative contestation in the workplace, in changing relations between the sexes and between generations, and in movements for national liberation (China, Algeria), to bring out "the positive content of socialism" while remaining clear-eyed about how bureaucratization may be reintroduced into emancipatory struggles.

Download or read book Modern Revolutions written by John Dunn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1989-06-22 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many political regimes today draw such legitimacy as they have from a revolution: the destruction of an existing political elite and its replacement by a different group or groups drawn from inside the same society. A large part of the ideological dispute in world politics has come in consequence to turn on an interpretation of the character of revolutions as political and social events. It is extremely difficult to separate ideological assessments of the desirability or otherwise of what has occured in revolutions from causal explanations of why these revolutions occurred, and both major traditions in the analysis of revolutionary phenomena have been damaged by their failure to distinguish clearly between explanation and assessment. In examining eight major revolutions of the twentieth century, John Dunn helps readers to remedy this state of affairs by thinking for themselves.

Download or read book North African Jewry in the Twentieth Century written by Michael M. Laskier and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1997-06-01 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before widescale emigration in the early 1960s, North Africa's Jewish communities were among the largest in the world. Without Jewish emigrants from North Africa, Israel's dynamic growth would simply not have occured. North African Jews, also called Maghribi, strengthed the new Israeli state through their settlements, often becoming the victims of Arab-Israeli conflicts and terrorist attacks. Their contribution and struggles are, in many ways, akin to the challenges emigrants from the former Soviet Union are currently encountering in Israel. Today, these North African Jewish communities are a vital force in Israeli society and politics as well as in France and Quebec. In the first major political history of North African Jewry, Michael Laskier paints a compelling picture of three Third World Jewish communities, tracing their exposure to modernization and their relations with the Muslims and the European settlers. Perhaps the most extraordinary feature of this volume is its astonishing array of primary sources. Laskier draws on a wide range of archives in Israel, Europe, and the United States and on personal interviews with former community leaders, Maghribi Zionists, and Jewish outsiders who lived and worked among North Africa's Jews to recreate the experiences and development of these communities.Among the subjects covered: --Jewish conditions before and during colonial penetration by the French and Spanish; --anti-Semitism in North Africa, as promoted both by European settlers and Maghribi nationalists; --the precarious position of Jews amidst the struggle between colonized Muslims and European colonialists; --the impact of pogroms in the 1930s and 1940s and the Vichy/Nazi menace; --internal Jewish communal struggles due to the conflict between the proponents of integration, and of emigration to other lands, and, later, the communal self-liquidiation process;—the role of clandestine organizations, such as the Mossad, in organizing for self-defense and illegal immigration;—and, more generally, the history of the North African `aliyaand Zionist activity from the beginning of the twentieth century onward. A unique and unprecedented study, Michael Laskier's work will stand as the definitive account of North African Jewry for some time.

Download or read book Peasants and Proletarians written by Robin Cohen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1979, this book examines differing forms of international, interracial working- class action and the relationship between workers’ struggles in the periphery and those in advanced capitalist countries. It analyses the nature of class alliances forged in the countryside and the urban sprawls of the developing world among workers, students and the unemployed. The volume draws on theoretical debates and detailed empirical studies dealing with a wide range of countries in Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Caribbean. Each of the sections is preceded by a linking editorial comment and the editors also provide an introductory overview. Reviews of the original edition of Peasants and Proletarians: ‘This is an important book both for historians and for social scientists. It draws attention to a previously underestimated labour force that has grown into a significant – indeed, indispensable – part of the international economic structure.’ Lynda Shaffer, Journal of Asian Studies, 39 (4) 1980. ‘This book offers a truly impressive and solid compilation of material on labour in the Third World. The sheer range of scholarship concerning many different types of workers over a timescale of nearly I00 years in countries and political situations as various, for example, as Lagos in the I890s, Jamaica in the 1930s, and socialist Algeria or Chile under Allende, is sometimes bewildering, but never fails to stimulate and absorb the reader.’ Paul Kennedy, Journal of Modern African Studies, 19 (4) 1981. ‘Peasants and Proletarians is a very major contribution. The editors' introduction, though brief, successfully raises many of these issues and outlines an approach to them...The twenty-one readings, concerned with early forms of resistance, rural workers, strategies of working-class action, migrant workers in advanced capitalist states, and contemporary struggles, offer geographical and intellectual breadth in their exploration of the diversity of Third World experience.’ Joel Samoff, ASA Review of Books, Vol. 6, 1980.

Download or read book La Parti socialiste S F I O confront la guerre d Alg rie 1954 1958 written by Etienne Maquin and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 1374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La S.F.I.O.. était, en 1954, au centre de la vie politique française, par sa force, sa cohésion et par la posture d'arbitre entre les extrêmes que les socialistes campaient volontiers. Mais, comme le régime en vigueur, elle était en perte de vitesse. Quand les évènements d'Algérie prirent la tournure d'une guerre d'indépendance nationale, les socialistes se décidèrent a prendre en main la tache de rétablir la paix. La S.F.I.O.. est un lieu d'observation privilégie: en étudiant comment elle réagit à la guerre d'Algérie, il est possible de découvrir pourquoi les français sont de nos jours fascines et perplexes devant cette période qui leur est si obscure. Le traitement de ce sujet reste délicat: le parti socialiste, comme appareil d'exercice du pouvoir, a imposé sa vision déformante et filtrante de la réalité, par le simple effet de sa volonté de modifier la situation. Il faut donc un ensemble d'outils d'observation et d'analyse, qui permette de mesurer la distance entre la pensée et le réel, le signifiant et le signifie, le discours et les évènements qu'il traite. Cette histoire apparait alors comme celle d'une crise d'un type particulier: non pas rupture, mais scission; non pas destruction, mais déplacement de la S.F.I.O.. du centre à la périphérie, du pouvoir depuis le législatif vers l'exécutif, du discours de la rhétorique a la déclaration, du charisme depuis le mollétisme vers le gaullisme, et du parti de la légitimation a la défense du consensus national ...
