  • Musée De La Résistance Bretonne – Saint-Marcel
    VERS UN NOUVEAU MUSÉE DE LA RÉSISTANCE EN BRETAGNE PROJET SCIENTIFIQUE ET CULTUREL Partie II – PROSPECTIVE RAPPELS – MISE EN PERSPECTIVE Situé à une vingtaine de kilomètres de Ploërmel et à 30 minutes de Vannes, Saint-Marcel est l'un des hauts-lieux de la Résistance Française. C'est aux abords de cette petite commune du Morbihan intérieur que s'est constitué, au printemps 1944, un maquis mobilisateur sans équivalent où plusieurs milliers de jeunes résistants bretons ont été armés et entraînés en vue de reprendre la lutte pour la libération de notre territoire. C'est là qu'eut lieu le 18 juin 1944 l’un des tout premiers combats livrés par des combattants Français contre l'occupant allemand après le débarquement allié en Normandie. Victoire des âmes plus encore que des armes, la « bataille de Saint-Marcel », livrée contre l’occupant à la date anniversaire de l’appel lancé quatre ans plus tôt par le général de Gaulle, a valeur de symbole. Elle a été rendue possible par la mobilisation des « enfants du pays » rassemblés au sein d’un centre mobilisateur clandestin sans équivalent. Elle n’aurait pas pu avoir lieu sans le soutien des parachutistes SAS de la France Libre dont les premiers furent largués en Bretagne dans la nuit du 5 au 6 juin 1944. Eléments précurseurs de l’opération Overlord en Normandie, ils étaient chargés d’armer et d’encadrer la Résistance et de harceler l’ennemi afin de le fixer en Bretagne. Leur présence, et le constat qu’ils feront dès leur arrivée d’une Résistance structurée et prête à prendre les armes, va justifier le parachutage par les Alliés d’une quantité exceptionnelle d’armes et de matériels sur Saint-Marcel.

    The Dynamics of National Integration: Ladiba Gondeu Working Paper No. 006 (English Version) THE DYNAMICS OF NATIONAL INTEGRATION: MOVING BEYOND ETHNIC CONFLICT IN A STATE-IN-WAITING LADIBA GONDEU October 2013 The Sahel Research Group, of the University of Florida’s Center for African Studies, is a collaborative effort to understand the political, social, economic, and cultural dynamics of the countries which comprise the West African Sahel. It focuses primarily on the six Francophone countries of the region—Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, and Chad—but also on in developments in neighboring countries, to the north and south, whose dy- namics frequently intersect with those of the Sahel. The Sahel Research Group brings together faculty and gradu- ate students from various disciplines at the University of Florida, in collaboration with colleagues from the region. Acknowledgements: This work is the fruit of a four month academic stay at the University of Florida Center for African Studies as a Visiting Scholar thanks to the kind invitation of the Profesor Leonardo A. Villalón, Coordinator of the Sahel Research Group. I would like to express my deep appreciation and gratitude to him and to his team. The ideas put forth in this document are mine and I take full responsibility for them.

THE MILITARY CONQUEST (1900-1917) Violence has a long history in Chad. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the societies of the south suffered from raids launched by the Muslim empire-states of Kanem-Borno, Baguirmi, Ouaddai and Darfur (today in Sudan) in order to capture slaves (Azevedo, 1978 and 1982). Moreover, wars between slave kingdoms were frequent and endless (Reyna, 1990). At the end of the nineteenth century, several powers clashed over the territories that make up todays Chad. The Muslim brotherhood of Sanusiyyah, a military theocracy, established itself in 1899 in Goura, a palm grove located on the eastern edge of Tibesti, and set up zawiya (centers that were simultaneously warehouses for goods and arms and buildings for worship and religious education) at Ain Galaka (Borku) and Bir Alali (Kanem) (Triaud, 1995).

Using both published and archival sources, I argue that Bourdet represents a specific type of intellectual: an “intellectual-resistant.” Characterized by his medium, journalism, and his resolve to pursue the ideals and objectives of the Resistance, Bourdet engendered avant-garde political discourses and strategies via his constant effort to build unified movements to oppose national and international injustices.

  • British, French, Belgian and Portuguese Models of Colonial Rule and Economic Development in Africa
    Annals of Global History Volume 1, Issue 1, 2019, PP 37-47 British, French, Belgian and Portuguese Models of Colonial Rule and Economic Development in Africa Ngozi Caleb Kamalu, Ph.D Fayetteville State University, Department of Government & History, 1200 Murchison Road, Fayetteville, North Carolina 28301, USA *Corresponding Author: Ngozi Caleb Kamalu, Ph.D, Fayetteville State University, Department of Government & History, 1200 Murchison Road, Fayetteville, North Carolina 28301, USA, Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Although the goals of the colonial powers of controlling the human and material resources of Africa were alike, their means of achieving those colonial goals and interests were different by virtue of their different approaches in social control, economic development and political integration. Despite achieving independence, many African countries still suffer from the remnants of colonialism in the form of neocolonialism – economic, social, language and cultural dependencies. Other contemporary conflicts African countries face in the post-colonial era include border disputes, disparate and unequal patterns of economic development, cultural and language differences resulting from colonial histories and experiences. This paper sets to narrate the history and evolution of European presence in Africa; analyze different and competing types or styles of colonial rules as well as patterns of development adopted by different European powers in their respective colonies in Africa; examine the British, French, Belgian and Portuguese types of rule in Africa and identify some of the major reasons why each colonial power adopted its own distinct form of policy. Keywords: Berlin Conference, Race and Scramble for Africa, Partition of Africa, Bakassi Peninsula, Industrial Revolution, Slave Coast, Triangular Trade, Warrant Chiefs, Indirect Rule, Assimilation, Emancipation, Brazaville Conference, Poll Tax, Paternalism, Sabon Gari, Colonialism, Compulsory/ Forced labor.

  • Introduction
    Notes INTRODUCTION 1 The figures for these and other plebiscites and referenda are taken from Quid (Paris: Laffont, 1985) p. 626. 2 See J.-R. Tournoux, La Tragedie du General (Paris: Pion, 1967) p. 470. The full quotation illustrates the permanence of de Gaulle's vision of the nation state and of nationalism as decisive forces in world politics: 'Napoleon, the greatest captain of modern times, was defeated from the moment when, instead of using a national army against royal armies, he found himself facing nations with the name of Spain, Prussia and Russia.' 3 See Albert Soboul, La Revolution Franf(aise (Paris: PUF, 1965) 'Que sais-je?', p. 116. It is very comforting, after reading the account in William Doyle (see note 12 to Chapter 1) of how Anglo-Saxon historians have cast doubt on all the received wisdom about the French Revolution, to turn back to a historian who considers that the Revolution did take place; that it did destroy the remnants of the feudal system; that the French nobility did enjoy fiscal privileges; that it was a closed caste; that the nationalisation of the Church lands did create a class of peasant small-holders; that the Revolution itself was (p. 114) an 'etape necessaire de Ia transition generale du feodalisme au capitalisme' (a necessary stage in the general transition from feudalism to capitalism); that it was therefore a Good Thing; especially since the rising middle class would shortly be giving way to the triumphant proletariat. For a more up-to-date and less traditional account of what really mattered in the French Revolution, see T.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my appreciation to Or. Vernon R. Dorjahn, whose extensive knowledge of traditional African societies and their processes of social change was of great help in providing me with the necessary background relative to the traditional setting of the peoples in the West- ern Sudan. At several points in the preparation of this thesis, the guidance and penetrating criticism of the thesis adviser, Dr. David J. Finlay, were of invaluable assistance. For this I am indeed grateful. Fortunately for advisers, they are not held responsible for the deficiencies of their students, and I am the first to admit the obvious inadequacies of this study. Dr. Finlay and others who contributed in lesser ways are, needless to say, absolved of any and all taints for its shortcomings. Finally, I want to express my indebtedness to my wife, Sara, for her support and her long hours of typing, and to my daughter, Gwyn, whose daddy was often too busy to be to her what she deserved. C.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: from COLONIES
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: FROM COLONIES TO CLIENT-STATES: THE ORIGINS OF FRANCE’S POSTCOLONIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA, 1940-1969 Paul Daniel Schmitt, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jeffrey Herf Department of History This dissertation examines the transformation of French mentalities regarding France’s role in Africa, beginning with World War II and continuing through the end of Charles de Gaulle’s presidency in 1969. Despite the political independence of France’s African colonies in 1960, many of them quickly transitioned from colonies into client- states. Since then, France’s relationships with its former colonies have enabled a variety of underhanded dealings on the continent. In tracing the roots of this transformation, I focus on French politicians and colonial administrators, and their gradual ideological shift away from traditional conceptions of the French colonial mission. I argue that the events of World War II, which split the empire and placed France in a greatly disadvantageous international position (first with respect to Nazi Germany and later vis-à-vis the Allies), led to a formidable shift in how France viewed its colonies and other Francophone territories in sub-Saharan Africa. French insecurity, precipitated by its fall as a major world power, required new ways to maintain influence internationally and in its empire. This mentality, while shaped by the postwar environment, was not the product of any one political ideology; it was shared by colonial administrators in both the Vichy and Free French regimes, and by politicians on both the left and right of the political spectrum after the war.
