Burning the Veil: the Algerian War and the 'Emancipation' of Muslim
3 Unveiling: the ‘revolutionary journées’ of 13 May 1958 Throughout the period from early 1956 to early 1958 putschist forces had been gathering strength both within the army and among right- wing settler organisations and these eventually coalesced on 13 May 1958 when crowds gathered in the Forum and stormed the General Government buildings. The military rapidly used the crisis to effect a bloodless coup and to install a temporary ‘revolutionary’ authority headed by a Committee of Public Safety (Comité de salut public or CSP) under Generals Massu and Salan. There then followed a tense stand- off between the army in Algeria and the new Paris government headed by Pierre Pfl imlin, a three-week period during which civil war was a real possibility, until de Gaulle agreed to assume, once again, the role of ‘saviour of the nation’, and was voted into power by the National Assembly on 1 June.1 ‘13 May’ was one of the great turning points in modern French history, not only because it marked a key stage in the Algerian War, but more signifi cantly the collapse of the Fourth Republic, de Gaulle’s return to power, and the beginnings of the new constitutional regime of the Fifth Republic. The planning of the coup and its implementation was extraordi- narily complex – the Bromberger brothers in Les 13 Complots du 13 mai counted thirteen strands2 – but basically two antagonistic politi- cal formations reached agreement to rally to the call for de Gaulle’s return to power. On the one hand there was a secret plot by Gaullists, most notably Michel Debré (soon to become Prime Minister), Jacques Soustelle, Léon Delbecque and Jacques Chaban-Delmas (acting Minister of Defence), to engineer the return of the General so as to resolve the political crisis of the ‘system’, the dead hand of the party system of the Fourth Republic, which they viewed as destroying the grandeur of France. -

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 United States military was shocked by its failure and was forced to consider what it had done wrong. Once the U.S. military looked into its past it was forced to admit it had wrongly ignored counterinsurgency. To correct this, it assigned many of its officers, along with other military experts, to create a new, updated doctrine that incorporated the lessons of Iraq and other recent, relevant historical precedent. -
