The Secretary-General^he President for the kind hospitality accorded to him during his visit to Algeria and also expressed the thanks of the Organization for the gesture of the Algerian Government in giving a building to house the United Nations Agencies and TAB offices. The Secretary-General informed Pres. Ben Bella that he would shortly send to Algeria a high ranking TAB official to correlate the work of TAB and UN Agencies. The Secretary-General then outlined the two reasons that could be given for the postponemenw t of the 19th session of the General Assembly and informed the President of •*-~-^-»-^——•—'~""'~"'" ^--.^i ^^ the reaction of the King of Morocco that should a second Belgrade conference be convened Belgrade only should be the site. Mr. Ben Bella expressed his appreciation at the visit of the Secretary-General in Algeria and the policy of President Kennedy should be continued in the field of peaceful co-existence. The President pointed out that he felt the Secretary-General should take informal initiatives in promoting international conferences which fall indirectly within the framework of the United Nations and which in the long run would stren^hen the Organization, Concerning the Belgrade Conference the President had already received a letter from Pres. Tito and he had discussed it with PM Chou-en-Lai. Both were agreed that this conference should be held prior to the Bandung Conference and to this effect the President said that he would be agreeable to hold it anywhere even in Rabat. President Ben Bella thinks that other countries should be invited to participate at Belgrade, for instance all the countries represented at Addis Ababalast May and also some countries from Latin America should be invited. He is in agreement with the Secretary-General that this could fee given as reason for the postponement of the General Assembly. The Secretary-General expressed his thanks to Pres. Ben Bella and afterwards touched on the problems of Portuguese territories and Apartheid. On these 2 points Pres. Ben Bella said that the struggle would be borne by the Africans and would prove to be a long one, but that in the long run a solution would be found as had been the case of the Algerian struggle. The Secretary-General then expressed his concern over the Congo and suggested that problem should be taken up at the next laax conference and tackled by Africans, and he proposed to make similar recommendations to the countries he was now going to visit. President Ben Bella was in agreement that the Congo problem should be tackled by the Lages Conference. - 2 - The Secretary-General then brought up the question of Algerian/Moroccan relations and made a request to Pres. Ben Bella for the exahange of Ambassadors with Morocco. To this Pres. Ben Bella replied that he was well-aware of the well-meaning attitude of the Secretary-General and added &hat at the moment this was the most important problem confronting Algeria and that he wished to settle the problem in a serious way. Pres. Ben Bella was doubtful that the exchange of Ambassadors would settle the problem - he pointed out that every day there were contacts made between the two Governments. He further said that the only way the situation could be improved would be for the King of Morocco to sign the agreementiySna^niio? been riicRea t€ethe Bamako Conference and which he had promised he would sign. To this effect Emperor Haile Selassie and Pres. Keita had written to the King asking him to sign the agreements but unfortunately the King still had not signed these agreements. President Ben Bella said that should the King sign those agreements he would send an Ambassador to Rabat the same day and that even he himself would meet the Kinfr. Concerning the King's interpretation of the discussions which had taken place in Cairo he said that the King had misunderstood that should he exhange Ambassadors with Cuba and the UAR Algeria would send an Ambassador to Morocco. President Ben Bella said that every day Algeria was giving proof of its goodwill to better relations with Morocco. To this effect he said that Algeria had recently granted nationality to 150,000 Moroccans and that trade agreements had not been interrupted between the two countries. In concluding President Ben Bella said that if the King were to promise to the Secretary-General that he would sign the agreements in say 2 weeks Algeria would immediately send an Ambassador to Rabat..

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.

  • 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.

  • The 50Th Anniversary of Algerian Independence Is an Opportunity to Take Stock of the Country’S Recent Past and the Actions of Its Government
    blogs.lse.ac.uk http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2012/07/19/algeria-independence/ The 50th anniversary of Algerian independence is an opportunity to take stock of the country’s recent past and the actions of its government Jul 19 2012 Algeria recently celebrated its 50th year as an independent state. As part of EUROPP’s coverage of the European neighbourhood, Natalya Vince assesses the current regime’s track record and questions whether the celebrations still hold any relevance for Algerians in 2012. Commemorating half a century of independence was always going to be more problematic for the Algerian state than the 2004 celebrations marking the fiftieth anniversary of the outbreak of the War of Liberation. November 1, 1954 – when a series of coordinated bomb attacks, assassinations and acts of sabotage were carried out across Algeria by the newly-formed National Liberation Front (FLN) with the aim of ending more than a century of French rule – remains fairly consensual shorthand for idealistic courage and patriotism in contemporary Algeria. The circumstances of independence, officially declared on July 5, 1962, are far more controversial. The FLN splintered into its rival factions and the summer months were overshadowed by political and armed conflict. By autumn, the faction of army generals won out over the provisional government, installing Ahmed Ben Bella as the first president of Algeria. Ben Bella in turn fell prey to a coup led by his former ally Houari Boumediene on June 19, 1965. Current president Abdelaziz Bouteflika was Boumediene’s foreign minister and close collaborator. July 5, 1962 thus has multiple meanings within Algeria, alternately symbolising the liberation of the Algerian people from colonial domination, the confiscation of the fruits of independence by a self-serving politico-military elite, or, perhaps increasingly for younger generations, not meaning much at all.

  • CWW4.2 the Algerian War of Independence (1954-1962) (Page
    CWW4.2 The Algerian War of Independence (1954-1962) (Page 1 of 4) When the Algerian War of Independence broke out in 1954, Algeria had been a colony of France since 1830. Many French people had moved to the colony as settlers, or colons, who owned most of the good farmland in Algeria. When native Algerian nationalists began to demonstrate for independence from France, French leaders argued that Algeria was part of France and could never be independent. On the same day that the French celebrated their liberation from Germany, May 8, 1945, Algerian nationalists held a rally for independence in Setif, an Algerian town. French colonial troops fired on the crowd and killed hundreds of native Algerian civilians. Barricades set up during the Algerian War of Independence, January 1960. Street of Algiers.

The FLN used violent tactics, such as bombings and terrorist acts, to fight the French and led a full-scale rebellion after 1954. The French army used severe methods, including torture of rebel captives for information, against the rebels. The French government received no economic or military support from the US, because American leaders said that France should let Algeria become independent. Neither the US nor the Soviet Union supported the FLN.
