This section gives an overview of the whole Maghrebian orogen comprising from south to north the following structural domains: the intra-continental Atlas system; the External Tell system, deriving from the African palaeo-margin; the Flyschs domain, representing the cover of the former oceanic domain and, finally, the Kabylides domain of European affinities. Restoration of the southern segment of the section, comprising the Atlas and External Tell systems, yields a minimum value of 40 km (20%) of horizontal shortening. For this part of the section, a four-step kinematic scenario, built using the THRUSTPACK software, illustrates the main stages of the deformation history: (1) Late Eocene ‘Atlas’ deformation pulse, (2) Early Miocene deposition of a thick flexural sequence, (3) Middle–Late Miocene emplacement of the Tell nappes and (4) Late Miocene to present out-of-sequence thrusting. -

Bowler Abstract This dissertation revises influential scholarship on nineteenth-century French colonial policy in Algeria. After French troops conquered Algeria in 1830, French civilian and military administrations competed for control. There were two major points of conflict between the civilian and military administrative branches: the extent to which the French should adopt or tolerate pre-existing political and social norms; and, most important, the process by which Europeans acquired and settled the land belonging to the indigenous population. In general, the military, especially the Arab Bureau, advocated a tolerance for and acceptance of local legal and social customs and supported a slow process of European colonization. -
Political Cleavages and Social Inequalities in Algeria, Iraq, and Turkey, 1990-2019

We investigate how social divides and ethno-religious conflicts shape voting behaviors in these three countries through their interaction with the voting system and the structure of inequalities. Our findings suggest that identity-based voting remains highly interconnected with social disparities and does not offer extensive explanatory power on its own, except in the extreme case of the Iraqi sectarian political system. Socioeconomic factors play a differentiated role depending on the historical and institutional context and have increasingly been at the heart of popular mobilizations outside of the electoral arena. 1 We are grateful to Ishac Diwan, Dalia Ghanem and Clara Martínez-Toledano for their useful advices. 2 Lydia Assouad, Amory Gethin, Thomas Piketty: Paris School of Economics – World Inequality Lab. Juliet-Nil Uraz: European University Institute. Introduction Shaken by civil wars, interstate conflicts and intifada for several decades, the Middle East and Northern Africa (MENA) region seems to find its unity around the predominance of violence. To explain such a political turmoil, a common view consists in reducing all conflicts in the region to their ethno-religious dimension. -

By selectively tolerating and thereby emphasizing confessional differences, this colonial strategy was fundamentally about reaffirming French authority. It did so by providing colonial leaders with a pliant, ethical and practical framework to both justify and veil the costs of a violent conquest and by eliding ethnic and regional divisions with simplistic categories of religious belonging. By claiming to protect mosques and synagogues and by lauding their purported respect for venerated figures, military leaders believed they would win the strategic support of local communities—and therefore secure the fate of France on African soil. Scholars have long focused on the latter period of French Empire, offering metropole-centric narratives of imperial development. -

Bellil 1 Les termes de « Kabylie » et « Kabyles » se sont, comme l’on sait, imposés au milieu du XIXe siècle au moment où, prenant possession de l’Algérie, les Français (militaires, administrateurs puis chercheurs) ont éprouvé le besoin d’identifier les différentes régions de la colonie et les populations qui y étaient établies. Ces termes qui proviennent de l’arabe qabâ’il (sing. qabîla) = « tribu », étaient déjà utilisés par les citadins (Arabes, Berbères arabisés, Andalous et Turcs) pour désigner les ruraux, aussi bien nomades que sédentaires, dont l’organisation sociale et politique reposait sur la forme tribale. Dans ces conditions, il est évidemment difficile de retrouver dans les écrits des historiens et géographes de langue arabe qui écrivaient entre le Xe siècle et le XVIe siècle des informations portant sur un espace et des populations qui ne seront identifiés comme tels que bien plus tard. -
French Republicanism in Algeria
ZENTRUM FÜR EUROPÄISCHE RECHTSPOLITIK an der Universität Bremen ZERP Edwige Lefebvre French Republicanism in Algeria: "Citoyen-Colon" versus "Sujet-Musulman-Français" ZERP-Diskussionspapier 5/97 Vorwort Seit der Französischen Revolution haben etliche Theoretiker den französischen republikanisch-universalen Staatsbürgerbegriff als ein Instrument der politischen Homogenisierung aufgefaßt. In dieser Studie soll gezeigt werden, daß er in Al- gerien keinesfalls als homogenisierender Faktor gewirkt, sondern vielmehr den Moslems die elementarsten Rechte verweigert hat. Er hat damit zur "Subjection" der einheimischen Bevölkerung beigetragen und in den französischen départe- ments Algeriens die Zweiteilung in französischen Bürger oder citoyen-colon auf der einen Seite und französischen Untertan oder sujet français musulman auf der anderen Seite hervorgebracht. Algerien veranschaulicht die Diskrepanz zwischen Theorie und Praxis der französischen Staatsbürgerschaft und liefert ein extremes Beispiel für die Unfä- higkeit Frankreichs, die volle Staatsbürgerschaft auch jenen Gruppen zu verlei- hen, die sich weigern, nicht nur ihr öffentliches Leben, sondern auch ihre Pri- vatsphäre französischer Kontrolle zu unterwerfen. Parallel dazu erhielten die al- gerischen Juden die französische Staatsbürgerschaft, indem sie - auf Druck der jüdischen Gemeinde Frankreichs - das französisch-jüdische Konsistorium aner- kannten und somit ihr öffentliches und einen Teil ihres privaten Lebens der französischen Gesetzgebung unterwarfen.

ABSTRACT' ! BETWEEN TWO FIRES: THE ORIGINS OF SETTLER COLONIALISM IN THE UNITED STATES AND FRENCH ALGERIA By Ashley Sanders This dissertation is a comparative study of the establishment of settler colonies in the American Midwest (1778-1795) and French colonial Algeria (1830-1848). It examines how interactions between the Indigenous populations, colonists, colonial administrators, the military, and the métropole shaped their development and advances the theory of settler colonialism. This study centers on the first fifteen to twenty years of conquest/occupation in the American Midwest, focusing specifically on southern Illinois and Indiana, and the province of Constantine, Algeria. Despite differences in geography, relative size of the military presence and Indigenous demographics, the process of establishing settler colonies in both locations followed similar trajectories. -
Natalya Vince, Colonial and Post-Colonial Identities
Colonial and Post-Colonial Identities 153 Colonial and Post-Colonial Identities: Women Veterans of the “Battle of Algiers” Natalya Vince* When seventeen-year-old student Baya Hocine was put on trial in Algiers in late 1957, accused of planting bombs for the Algerian Front de Libération Nationale (FLN), the French colonial authorities sought out her school reports for the case file. Baya Hocine’s teachers describe an excellent student: extremely intelligent with a lively personality, although reluctant to express any unhappy emotions.1 Could her teachers have guessed that this high-achieving pupil of the French education system in colonial Algeria would go on to commit such a violent expression of anti- colonialism, planting a bomb in an Algiers stadium that killed two people and injured 24 others? It seems unlikely. Unrepentant, Baya Hocine was condemned to death, then reprieved, and passed the rest of the liberation struggle in prison until Algerian Independence was finally won in 1962. Twenty years later, she was a deputy in the Algerian National Assembly during the debates around the introduction of a Family Code. Baya Hocine energetically argued against the Code, which institutionalized gender inequality and reduced women to the status of minors for life, only to be * Natalya Vince received her Ph.D. in 2008 from the University of London (Queen Mary) for her thesis, “To be a Moudjahida in Independent Algeria: Itineraries and Memories of Women Veterans of the Algerian War.” Her research interests lie in twentieth century French and North African history, politics and society.

It also investigates the tourist needs of the Algerian population after the closure of international borders. Methods: The data were collected using a mixture of quantitative and qualitative methods through a questionnaire applied to 203 people in different regions of Algeria (a North African country) from 1 June to 13 July 2020. Results: The needs of Algerian tourists were characterized by a great need for leisure to relieve psychological stress caused by COVID-19 (M = 25.33) among the study sample (p < 0.05). The results also show an average need to rationalize the costs of tourist services (M = 5.26) according to the respondents (p < 0.01). This is in addition to the great need (M = 7.75) among respondents (p < 0.05) of the awareness that the tourism sector can contribute to the economic recovery in Algeria after the confinement period.
