Le premier, La guerre commence en Algérie de Mohammed Harbi, ne « payait pas de mine » à sa sortie, comparé aux classiques bien installés dans le domaine académique, tels ceux de Charles-André Julien et de Charles-Robert Ageron, côté français, ou de Mahfoud Kaddache, côté algérien. Mais dès les pre- mières pages, je fus happé par le texte. Bien plus tard, c’est l’ouvrage de François Maspéro, L’ h o n n e u r d e Saint-Arnaud, que je découvris avec étonnement, me demandant ce que cet éditeur de renom avait à faire avec l’histoire de la colonisation de l’Algérie ; là encore, je fus captivé par un texte d’une densité excep- tionnelle et par une approche bien singulière des faits historiques. Enfin, lorsque Clement Moore Henry me proposa de préfacer sa recherche sur l’UGEMA (Union Générale des Etudiants Musulmans Algériens), ce fut le même plaisir que j’éprouvai en la lisant. A la réflexion, je compris pourquoi ces trois ouvra- ges avaient produit le même effet sur moi bien qu’ils fussent si différents par leur objet : un quartier, une 7 Combat et Solidarité estudiantins ville dans les années cinquante pour le premier ; un militaire français de haut rang qui dirigea la guerre de colonisation après 1830, pour le deuxième ; une asso- ciation d’étudiants algériens qui vécut le temps de la guerre de libération de 1955 à 1962, pour le troisième. En fait, tous trois participaient d’une même approche, d’une même « façon de faire ». Les acteurs étaient observés de près : ici des militants, là un général, bien- tôt maréchal, et enfin des étudiants algériens à Paris, à Montpellier ou à Tunis. Tous portaient un nom et s’exprimaient directement ou à travers leur correspon- dance, comme c’est le cas pour St Arnaud. Ils expliquaient, justifiaient leurs comportements et leurs actes. C’étaient des personnes, avec leurs indivi- dualités singulières, leurs sentiments, leurs valeurs, nobles ou misérables, que je voyais vivre et agir à tra- vers le texte écrit de l’historien. Ils donnaient du sens aux archives et aux statistiques, de la vie à l’histoire que les larges fresques des historiens « classiques » avaient écrasée par leurs grandes constructions ration- nelles. « L’esprit de finesse » venait ici au secours de « l’esprit de géométrie » et c’était, sans nul doute, cela qui produisait en moi ce plaisir d’apprendre encore, au-delà de ce que je savais déjà. Ces trois auteurs ont été, à mon humble avis, les premiers historiens de « l’histoire par le bas », des « subaltern studies » selon l’appellation donnée par nos prédécesseurs en Inde. De même que M. Harbi, à l’époque où il publia ce premier ouvrage, ou F. Maspero qui fit littéralement irruption en « outsider » dans le champ académique très fermé des historiens, Clement Moore Henry n’est pas connu des spécialistes – algériens, français, ou aut- res –, de l’histoire de l’Algérie et plus particulièrement de son mouvement de libération nationale. Et c’est tant mieux ! Politiste reconnu du Moyen Orient et de 8 Préface l’Afrique du Nord, cet Américain du Texas, professeur à l’université d’Austin, n’est impliqué ni dans les controverses académiques qui animent le microcosme des chercheurs sur cette question, ni dans les rhéto- riques politiciennes qui dévoient la mémoire des acteurs de cette période. Mais cet observateur informé de notre histoire est resté proche de l’évolution post- indépendance du pays après en avoir été un témoin « sympathisant » de sa période révolutionnaire. Etudiant à Paris en 1957, il exprima la solidarité de son association estudiantine américaine avec l’UGEMA, en parlant publiquement des « conséquences ignobles du colonialisme français pour les droits des étudiants algé- riens », ce qui lui valut d’ailleurs son expulsion du territoire français. De cette époque date son intérêt pour ce pays et son histoire et notamment pour la cen- taine d’étudiants qu’il avait alors côtoyés de près et avec lesquels il est, depuis lors, resté en contact. A ce propos, nous pouvons noter, comme remarque de méthode, que c’est grâce à ce contact maintenu dans une relation de « confiance » avec les anciens étu- diants de l’UGEMA que Clement a pu mener à bien la plus grande partie de son travail de recherche, cin- quante années plus tard. « Il faut être un hôte bienvenu,

The Non-Aligned Movement gathered together nations who longed for an alternative to the bi- polar cold war order, above all to create a third way which would not result in two superpowers nor would rest on the logic that every country is forced to decide between and subjugate itself ei- ther to a capitalist block (under the United States) or a socialist block (at the head of which was the Soviet Union whose dominant position was chal- lenged by another socialist country, China).

  • Algeria: Free Press, Opaque Political Economy
    Algeria: Free Press, Opaque Political Economy One of the bright spots in Algerian politics since 1988 has been a vibrant printed press, privately owned in large part. Readership in both French and Arabic forged rapidly ahead of those in neighboring countries in the late 1980s, and Algeria exemplified the freest press in the region. During the Islamist insurrection readership plummeted but then recovered slightly in 1998, the last year of available World Bank statistics. Morocco, experiencing a gradual political opening after 1996 and a more diversified press, was now catching up with Algeria, although Moroccan literacy rates were much lower. Comparisons between Algeria and Tunisia are perhaps more instructive because the two countries have roughly similar literacy rates, but the latter has a much duller, controlled press and less readership. This paper will try to explain why Algeria’s press still attracts fewer readers than might be expected, given its contents and levels of public literacy. First I will illustrate how freely it operates, compared to its Maghribi counterparts, by examining how the Algerian press treats its president, Abdelaziz Bouteflika, and how it handled the news of the failure of a big Algerian private sector conglomerate, the Khalifa Group. But I also argue that press readership may reflect not only the relative liberty of the press but also the possibilities of the readership to respond to the news by engaging in forms of collective action. Newspaper readership is largely a function of per capita income, but within a given economy, at least along the Southern Mediterranean, it also tracks pretty well with political openings and closures in a number of Southern Mediterranean countries for which World Bank data are available 1980-1998 (Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Syria, and Tunisia).

This was discussed at a meeting of specialists on North African politics held in the Institute. In view of the continuing importance of developments in Algeria the Institute asked Professor Leveau to prepare this revised version of his paper for wider circulation. We are very grateful to Professor Leveau for having prepared this stimulating and enlightening analysis of developments which are also of importance to Algeria's European neighbours. We are also grateful to those who took part in the discussion of earlier drafts of this paper. John Roper Paris, September 1992 - v - Algeria: adversaries in search of uncertain compromises Rémy Leveau INTRODUCTION The perception of Islamic movements has been marked in Europe since 1979 by images of the Iranian revolution: hostages in the American Embassy, support for international terrorism, incidents at the mosque in Mecca and the Salman Rushdie affair. The dominant rhetoric of the FIS (Islamic Salvation Front) in Algeria, which has since 1989 presented a similar image of rejection of internal state order and of the international system, strengthens the feeling of an identity of aims and of a bloc of hostile attitudes.

  • Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State
    Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State By Neil Grant Landers A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in French in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY Committee in charge: Professor Debarati Sanyal, Co-Chair Professor Soraya Tlatli, Co-Chair Professor Karl Britto Professor Stefania Pandolfo Fall 2013 1 Abstract of the Dissertation Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State by Neil Grant Landers Doctor of Philosophy in French Literature University of California, Berkeley Professor Debarati Sanyal, Co-Chair Professor Soraya Tlatli, Co-Chair Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State addresses the way the Algerian civil war has been portrayed in 1990s novelistic literature. In the words of one literary critic, "The Algerian war has been, in a sense, one big murder mystery."1 This may be true, but literary accounts portray the "mystery" of the civil war—and propose to solve it—in sharply divergent ways. The primary aim of this study is to examine how three of the most celebrated 1990s novels depict—organize, analyze, interpret, and "solve"—the civil war. I analyze and interpret these novels—by Assia Djebar, Yasmina Khadra, and Boualem Sansal—through a deep contextualization, both in terms of Algerian history and in the novels' contemporary setting. This is particularly important in this case, since the civil war is so contested, and is poorly understood. Using the novels' thematic content as a cue for deeper understanding, I engage through them and with them a number of elements crucial to understanding the civil war: Algeria's troubled nationalist legacy; its stagnant one-party regime; a fear, distrust, and poor understanding of the Islamist movement and the insurgency that erupted in 1992; and the unending, horrifically bloody violence that piled on throughout the 1990s.

Dr. Brower’s continued feedback and inspiring discussions have taught me more about Algeria than I ever expected to learn in one year. Dr. Al-Batal has been an inspiration to me throughout my two years as a graduate student. I credit much of my linguistic development to his tireless encouragement and feedback. To Dr. Kristen Brustad, I extend my deepest gratitude for not only teaching me Arabic, but also teaching me how to think about language. Our many discussions on language ideology stoked my curiosity for exploring the topic of Arabization in more detail. Thank you for showing me how debates over language are rarely ever about language itself. I would also like to thank the Department of Middle Eastern Studies, the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, and the Arabic Flagship Program for their continued commitment to providing a high-quality, supportive, and enjoyable environment in which to learn Arabic.

Algerians, State Terror, and Memory, a number of books, by Jean-Luc Einaudi, Jean-Paul Brunet, Alain Dewerpe, Linda Amiri, Rémy Valat, and others, meant that the main features of the Paris massacre and the demonstration of 17 October were quite well understood.1 Political controversy has continued to rage, mainly in relation to the contested issue of the numbers of Algerians that were killed, but in general the bulk of the publications that have appeared since Paris 1961 have had to do with the cultural, artistic and memorial aspects of the events, rather than with further research into primary archival sources.2 This shift from the further excavation of archives, to differing interpretations of cultural and political meanings, was exemplified by the debates surrounding Michael Haneke’s film Caché,3 and the commemoration of the 50th anniversary in October 2011.

Le retour sur ce passé a débuté, en 2000-2001, avec la publication à la Une du Monde du téMoignage de Louisette Ighilahriz. Cette Militante de l'indépendance algérienne, qui fut torturée Mais sauvée par un Médecin dont elle connaît le nom, voulait retrouver pour lui dire, enfin, sa reconnaissance. Le débat a ensuite été ponctué par les regrets du général Massu, la reconnaissance de l'usage courant de la torture par le général Aussaresses et les déclarations du général Bigeard, évoquant cette pratique comMe « un Mal nécessaire » dans cette guerre1.
