Morphological Evolution of the Port‐City Interface of Algiers (16Th Century to the Present)
Urban Planning (ISSN: 2183–7635) 2021, Volume 6, Issue 3, Pages 119–135 https://doi.org/10.17645/up.v6i3.4017 Article Morphological Evolution of the Port‐City Interface of Algiers (16th Century to the Present) Khalil Bachir Aouissi 1, Said Madani 1 and Vincent Baptist 2,* 1 Laboratory PUViT, Ferhat Abbas University Setif 1, Algeria; E‐Mails: aouissikhalil@univ‐blida.dz (K.B.A.), smadani@univ‐setif.dz (S.M.) 2 Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication, Erasmus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands; E‐Mail: [email protected] * Corresponding author Submitted: 17 January 2021 | Accepted: 27 March 2021 | Published: 27 July 2021 Abstract This article traces the centuries‐long morphological development of Algiers’ port‐city interface across four historically rel‐ evant time periods that together span from the dawn of the 16th century up until today. Through a diachronic and geo‐ historical approach, we identify and analyse the origins of Algiers’ persistent port‐city divide. In doing so, the notion of the interface is interpreted as a spatial threshold between city and port, which nevertheless supports the material flows of both entities. As a multi‐purpose area, the interface holds the potential to weave the disparate entities of a port city back together. To further complement this conceptual angle, we provide investigations of porosity that determine the differing degrees of connectivity between the city and port of Algiers. This is combined with a spatial‐functional analysis of Algiers’ current port‐city interface, which is ultimately characterised as a non‐homogeneous entity composed of four distinct sequences. These results contribute to a better orientation of imminent plans for waterfront revitalisations in Algiers. -
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. -
Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation
Images of the Past: Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David M. Bond, M.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Sabra J. Webber, Advisor Johanna Sellman Philip Armstrong Copyrighted by David Bond 2017 Abstract The construction of stories about identity, origins, history and community is central in the process of national identity formation: to mould a national identity – a sense of unity with others belonging to the same nation – it is necessary to have an understanding of oneself as located in a temporally extended narrative which can be remembered and recalled. Amid the “memory boom” of recent decades, “memory” is used to cover a variety of social practices, sometimes at the expense of the nuance and texture of history and politics. The result can be an elision of the ways in which memories are constructed through acts of manipulation and the play of power. This dissertation examines practices and practitioners of nostalgia in a particular context, that of Tunisia and the Mediterranean region during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Using a variety of historical and ethnographical sources I show how multifaceted nostalgia was a feature of the colonial situation in Tunisia notably in the period after the First World War. In the postcolonial period I explore continuities with the colonial period and the uses of nostalgia as a means of contestation when other possibilities are limited. -

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. -

Chabod” ANNO 2007 M-STO/04 STORIA CONTEMPORANEA TITOLO DELLA TESI DI RICERCA: Il leader e la televisione: il caso de Gaulle (1958-1965) CANDIDATO: Brizzi Riccardo TUTOR COORDINATORE Prof. Paolo Pombeni Prof. Maria Serena Piretti Introduzione Il 19 agosto 1944 Parigi si solleva contro l’occupante nazista. In serata un’operazione condotta da alcune squadre della Resistenza nelle teche di Radio-Paris permette di impadronirsi di un centinaio di dischi. L’indomani Jean Guignebert, ministro dell’Informazione ad interim in seguito all’arresto di Pierre-Henri Teitgen, solo nel proprio ufficio clandestino, isolato dagli altri membri del governo provvisorio, riflette sull’opportunità di iniziare le trasmissioni dagli studi di prova di Radi o-Paris, occupati in gran segreto dai suoi uomini qualche giorno prima. La posta in gioco era delicata: era il caso di trasmettere, per la prima volta dal suolo della capitale, la voce della Francia Libera o era meglio attendere che la situazione evolvesse in senso favorevole? Il desiderio di partecipare alla battaglia in corso, la necessità di incoraggiare la Resistenza dandole la parola, nel momento in cui i suoi uomini stavano affrontando per le strade di Parigi le pattuglie tedesche, ebbe la meglio. Alle 22 e 31 della sera del 20 agosto 1944, dopo il lapidario annuncio «Qui radio nazionale francese», la Marsigliese veniva trasmessa via radio. Due giorni dopo, alle 16 del 22 agosto, era la volta del primo notiziario, aperto dalla chiamata alle armi fatta dallo Stato maggiore delle Forces Françaises de l’Intérieur . -

The Development of Algerian Nationalism 1936-1954
The development of Algerian nationalism 1936-1954 Mohamed Mounir KHENOUF The history of Algerian political struggle from the first world war until 1954 was dominated by three motifs, which were : a) The general movement of politically conscious Algerians from assimilationist demands to militant nationalism; b) The unceasing sabotage of the periodic metropolitan liberalising initiatives by the colons; c) The tremendous difficulties in these circumstances of evolving an effective nationalist strategy. These difficulties were apparent before the Second World War in the variety of Muslim political movements. Apart from those Muslims elected to the Conseil Superieur and the Delegations Financiers, whose criticism of French policies was very restrained, we can distinguish between the so-called French Algerians, led in the 1930s by Ben Djelloul and Ferhat Abbas, who demanded full assimilation; the reformed Oulema, led by Ben Badis, who were concerned to develop the Islamic and Arabic character of the Muslim population in opposition to French culture; the proletarian followers of Messali Hadj, initially in France, who demanded independence; and the trade unionists, especially the communists, who supported working-class solidarity with the working class in France. The critical turning point in Algerian political life occurred with the disruption and revelations brought about by the Second World War. The reasons for this transformation were numerous: the submergence of assimilationist hopes with the failure of the Blum Violette project, the emergence of colonial fascism in Algeria under the Vichy government, the opening up of new possibilities of democratic nationalism with the Anglo-American landings and the early political weakness of De Gaulle’s liberation committee,. -

Analysis of the Causes of the Independent Movement of Algeria
IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 19, Issue 6, Ver. V (Jun. 2014), PP 79-95 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Analysis of the Causes of the Independent Movement of Algeria Rabeya Khatun Islamic History and Culture Department, University of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Abstract: The aim of this paper is to identify and analysis the different causes of the Algerian War of Independence 1954-1962. The analysis extends to include various aspects of French colonization’s policy and their determination to maintain direct control of Algeria because of its strategic location and how they pillaged the land, destroyed old cultures, displaced local languages, transformed ancient customs, devastation of traditional society, economy and military alliances and how they created new ones throwing up in their wake new historical opportunities. It represents the undermining of women's roles and rights, and the exploitation of their willingness to shelve their feminist agenda in favor of participation in the nationalist cause. This paper also looks at the role of nationalist parties and leaders to rise of Algerian nationalism. This paper is traced to the nature of the socio-political Circumstances of Algeria that took over the leadership of the anti-colonial struggle, war of independence and subsequently of the Algerian state. Keywords: Algeria, colony, nationalism, women, independence. I. Preface It was the century of colonialism. The principal colonial powers were the United Kingdom, France, Russia and the Netherlands. The nations of Europe fanned out across the globe in search of profits and in the process subjugated vast regions of the earth, pillaging the land, destroying old cultures, displacing local languages, transforming ancient customs. -
Altérité and the FLN Chad R. Cussen …Had I Discovered the Algerian
Fractured Fraternity: Altérité and the FLN Chad R. Cussen Chad R. Cussen is a graduate student from Roann, Indiana. He graduated with a B.A. in History and International Studies from Indiana University in 2008 and studied at the University of Strasbourg’s affiliate Institute of Human Rights in France. He wrote this paper for Dr. Beck’s History 5400, Imperialism, in the fall of 2008. Chad’s research interests include the cultural and political history of nineteenth and twentieth-century France. …Had I discovered the Algerian nation, I would be a nationalist and would not blush as if I had committed a crime…However, I will not die for the Algerian nation, because it does not exist.229 Ferhat Abbas …Par delà la légende politique et les fictions juridiques de l’Algérie « terre de France en Afrique », notre pays est une colonie, dont l’originalité est d’être à la fois d’exploitation et de peuplement.230 Hocine Aït Ahmed …Si la peur donne des ailes et fait perdre tout jugement, elle fait dire aussi des bêtises. C’est ainsi que la période héroïque de 1936, au cours de laquelle la conscience nationale a été éveillée par le venue de l’Étoile Nord-Africaine en Algérie, est qualifiée de période de lutte fratricide.231 Declaration by followers of Messali Hadj, spring 1954 In 1954, Algerian leaders of the Front de Libération National (FLN) joyously declared independence from metropolitan France and aspired for a unified Algeria. French colonialism, however, created deep divisions within the FLN. These divisions were not formed spontaneously in 1954, but through a long process and relationship with metropolitan France.
