We did not realize that in suppressing the forces of resistance in this fashion, we were also suppressing our means of action. The result is that we are today confronted by a sort of human dust on which we have no influence and in which movements take place which are to us unknown. ---Jules Cambon, 1894 Jules Cambon, Governor General of Algeria in 1894, anticipated the loss of French colonial possession of Algeria sixty years before the official beginning of the Algerian war for independence on November 1, 1954. The French had identified the large, traditional family as a potential foundation for anti-colonial collective action in Algeria. By breaking up these families, they had hoped to dispel pockets of resistance to their authority. However, by asserting their dominance and disrupting the family, the limits of France's hegemony were revealed. Cambon's words betray his fear of losing control over the non-European masses as a result of French interference and ignorance. After years of disenfranchisement and exploitation, the French had created a “human dust” out of the indigenous population that they could no longer read or influence. Politically, this fear of losing control over the non-European majority blocked subsequent social and legal reforms from passing. Dissatisfaction with French rule fueled by broken promises and interference into the civil sphere led non-European Algerians to create alternative forms of collectivity which gradually led to armed resistance. This was not only the result of a colonial/indigenous struggle over history as Ranajit Guha describes in the case of colonial India in Dominance Without Hegemony: History and Power in Colonial India, 2 but a struggle over identity in the civil, family sphere. As French attempts at manipulation of the family increased, the Algerian family likewise changed form—sons violently resisted their fathers' traditions and sisters dropped their veils to go to war to shake off the yoke of colonial oppression. Evidence of the changing Algerian family structure are visible in legal, literary, and cultural documents of the period. One of the most famous “Algerian” intellectuals, the Martiniquais Frantz Fanon, describes alterations in a number of family relationships in his 1959 essay “The Algerian Family” in Studies in a Dying Colonialism.1 These shifts, Fanon argues, developed out of “direct” political action replacing political discussions or complaints of the “party.” The revolution dominated every aspect of life—including family relations: The political party passes over to direct action, and the problems that the son faces are problems of life or death for the country. In a parallel way, his attitude toward his father and the other members of the family frees itself of everything that proves unnecessary and detrimental to the revolutionary situation. The person is born, assumes his autonomy, and becomes the creator of his own values. (101) Disrupting the patriarchal relationship between father and son set the stage for shifts in other kinds of relationships. As soon as respect for the father and elders came into question, it revealed the unsteady foundation of other family relationships between daughters and fathers (105) and between brothers (110). This dislocation of the family's traditional foundation also changed the nature of social relationships between women and men (111), feminine society (116), and legal matters such as marriage and divorce (114). 1 In French, this was published as L'an V de la révolution algérienne. 3 By discussing different types of relationships, Fanon indicates that matters of the family relate directly to a variety of different discourses—particularly the political. Representations of the family provide a useful lens through which to view the Algerian war for independence. The family structure was viewed as a potential threat early in the course of colonial rule as seen in Cambon's comments and France's actions. Although I would argue that relationships of the family inherently involve political, legal, cultural, religious, and literary concerns,2 the family structure in the case of Algeria seems particularly relevant to a discussion of the politics of decolonization in part due to its unique relationship with France as both a colony and a state comprised of many different religions and ethnicities. Civil law was left largely in the hands of the people, so matters of the family were de jure dictated by Muslim law courts. This gave the people a vestige of freedom in their private affairs, so when the French interfered in civil matters such as forced unveiling and a new family code (as I will discuss later), the non-European majority did not react well. Challenges to French colonial treatment appeared in various

  • A Book Review of Inside the Battle of Algiers, by Zohra Drif: a Thematic Analysis on Women’S Agency; W
    A Book Review of Inside the Battle of Algiers, by Zohra Drif: A Thematic Analysis on Women’s Agency; W. Zekri Abstract This paper explores Zohra Drif’s memoir, Inside the Battle of Algiers, which narrates her desires as a student to become a revolutionary activist. She exemplified, in her narrative, the different roles, she and her fellows performed as combatants in the Casbah during the Algerian Revolution 1954-1962. This book review aims to evaluate the concept of women’s agency through education and language learning, and its impact on empowering women’s desires. Close-reading method and thematic analysis are used to explore the text. The analysis identified themes that refine the meaning of agency which are social and cultural supports, education, and language proficiency. These themes aim to contribute to the representation in Inside the Battle of Algiers of a woman guerrilla who engaged herself to perform national acts of resistance. Introduction This review is about Zohra Drif’s book entitled Memoir of a Woman Freedom Fighter: Inside the Battle of Algiers. Zohra is born in 1934 in Tiaret, a city situated in the west part of Algeria. She was a Law student at the University of Algiers. She conducted several revolutionary acts. This book is an autobiography of her life in which she used the first pronoun ‘I’ to portray her story. She published this book in French in 2013; then, it was translated into English by Andrew Farrand and published in 2017. This book is worth being published, as it tells a story of two young educated women, Zohra and Samia, who sacrificed their lives for the Algerian cause of independence, and gained the honor to be known as volunteers of death.

  • History of Colonization of Tunisia
    1 History of Colonization of Tunisia INTRODUCTION History of the mankind is a rather interesting matter for study. Every nation in the world has its own history, and at the same time all nations are interconnected in the history in this or that way. All the events of the world’s history are recurrent and people of today should study history so that not to repeat the mistakes of past generations and avoid the difficulties they experienced. History of every nation in the world possesses its own tragic and glorious episodes. History is the combination of political, economic, social, military and religious events and processes that form the direction in which this or that nation develops. In this paper, the history of one country of African continent will be considered – the history of Tunisia and of colonization of this country by various nations (Balout vol. 1). The history of Tunisia is very complicated and filled with tragic moments of decline and glorious moments of power and influence. The epochs of Berber nation, Phoenician establishment of the first city-states on the territory of the modern Tunisia, Punic Wars and Roman conquest, Vandals, Byzantines and Ottomans, French colonization and, finally, the Independence of the country – all these stages of development of Tunisia are very important and influential for the shaping of the modern country (Balout vol. 1). The current paper will focus on all the most significant periods of the history of Tunisia with special attention paid to the political, social and military processes that affected the territory of the modern Tunisia in this or that way.

  • Teaching Interfaith Relations at Universities in the Arab Middle East: Challenges and Strategies
    religions Article Teaching Interfaith Relations at Universities in the Arab Middle East: Challenges and Strategies Josef Meri College of Islamic Studies, Hamad bin Khalifa University, Education City, 34110 Doha, Qatar; [email protected] Abstract: This study explores the present state of teaching Interfaith/Interreligious Relations at universities in the Arab Middle East. First, it considers the definition and various approaches to teaching Interfaith Relations by leading proponents of Interreligious Studies in the West such as Oddbjørn Leirvik and Marianne Moyaert within a theoretical framework that is sensitive to the Arab Middle Eastern context. It explores several key factors in Arab society that have prevented the teaching of Interfaith Relations in universities. The discussion then turns to the unique Dar Al-Kalima University (Palestine) Interreligious Dialogue Inter-Regional Curriculum initiative and its significance for teaching Interfaith Relations in the university. Finally, the study examines the case study method of teaching developed by Diana Eck at Harvard University, which can be adapted to a Middle Eastern context and offers two unique case studies for university teachers. Keywords: interfaith studies; interreligious studies; interfaith dialogue; disruptive education; teach- ing interfaith studies; interfaith relations 1. Introduction Citation: Meri, Josef. 2021.

    Nisan / The Levantine Review Volume 4 Number 2 (Winter 2015) Identity and Peoples in History Speculating on Ancient Mediterranean Mysteries Mordechai Nisan* We are familiar with a philo-Semitic disposition characterizing a number of communities, including Phoenicians/Lebanese, Kabyles/Berbers, and Ismailis/Druze, raising the question of a historical foundation binding them all together. The ethnic threads began in the Galilee and Mount Lebanon and later conceivably wound themselves back there in the persona of Al-Muwahiddun [Unitarian] Druze. While DNA testing is a fascinating methodology to verify the similarity or identity of a shared gene pool among ostensibly disparate peoples, we will primarily pursue our inquiry using conventional historical materials, without however—at the end—avoiding the clues offered by modern science. Our thesis seeks to substantiate an intuition, a reading of the contours of tales emanating from the eastern Mediterranean basin, the Levantine area, to Africa and Egypt, and returning to Israel and Lebanon. The story unfolds with ancient biblical tribes of Israel in the north of their country mixing with, or becoming Lebanese Phoenicians, travelling to North Africa—Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya in particular— assimilating among Kabyle Berbers, later fusing with Shi’a Ismailis in the Maghreb, who would then migrate to Egypt, and during the Fatimid period evolve as the Druze. The latter would later flee Egypt and return to Lebanon—the place where their (biological) ancestors had once dwelt. The original core group was composed of Hebrews/Jews, toward whom various communities evince affinity and identity today with the Jewish people and the state of Israel.

  • 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.
