The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how Argentine experience of internal repression was passed on to Paraguay as a result of the meetings between its intelligence services. The meetings were carried out by the military in the 1970s, aiming at joint operations of political persecution and extermination of the opponents of the dictatorships that prevailed in these two countries. The author analyzes documentation transmitted during the meeting called IIda Regional Bilateral Meeting of Intelligence between Paraguay and Argentina in 1978.

Never having known Assia Djebar, i can only speak of the effect her writing has had on me, above all one of her first works, Les enfants du nouveau monde (Children of the New World), created as Algerian independence became a reality, inaugurating a postcolonial nation full of promise and contradiction. In this novel Djebar wrote of Algeria at a moment, 1961-62, when it was on the threshold of its becoming, the very moment of the invention of Algeria, when the coming laborious construction of Algeria, which continues today, was already visible. The moment when the unyielding violence of the str

Abstract:

Octobre à Paris (1961) was a clandestine documentary executed after one of the most notorious yet occulted state massacres in French history, conducted after approximately 20–30,000 Algerians had flooded the streets of Paris in order to protest against police persecution. In existing scholarship on the film, critics have generally tended to historicise Octobre à Paris in largely politically progressive terms, as a rare example of anti-colonial cinema produced during a particularly stringent period in the history of French film. As the first part of this article will argue, this interpretation

Abstract:

The Civil War in Algeria is entering its eighth year and, despite a recent decrease in intensity, shows no sign of ending. Just when it appears that the armed Islamist groups are on the verge of defeat, another horrendous massacre occurs, reminding all that the conflict is far from resolution. One of the particularities of the Algerian war is that so little has been known about it, about the protagonists, the attitude of the population, how the conflict has played out across the country, and even what exactly is being fought over. This has been largely due to restrictions on freely moving arou

Abstract:

This article draws together historical sources and political science insights to test the emergence of civil war at the end of empire. It focuses on civil conflict in two French colonial territories, Vietnam and Algeria, during and immediately after 1945. It investigates the civil war dynamics of local, often intra-ethnic contests among anticolonial oppositionists. Concentrating on the early, formative years of insurgent violence, we aim to demonstrate that elements of civil war pre-existed the supposed outbreak of decolonisation conflicts – 1946 in Vietnam and 1954 in Algeria.

Leila Sebbar, since the beginning of her literary work, has been describing her identity experience connected with her mixed family origins: the writer’s father was Algerian and her mother French. This prevailing thread in her texts demonstrates the weight of the (re)construction of identity, frequently incoherent and delicate, in order to confirm her ethnic and cultural affinity.The author of this article is interested in problems, so close to the writer, of identity and history.

Abstract:

On 26 May 1967, French police opened fire on striking workers in Pointeà-Pitre, Guadeloupe, sparking a major uprising across the city. According to officials at the time, eight Guadeloupeans were killed during the unrest and many more were injured. However, a state cover-up means we may never know the true death toll. The French government blamed the violence on a clandestine independence movement (GONG) and tried nineteen activists before the French court of state security for threatening the territorial integrity of the French Republic. Fifty years later, the massacre has received little ack

From 1954 to 1962, the Algerian population in France rose sharply; yet, the workers were silenced in the national story until 2001, on the fortieth anniversary of the 17 October 1961 massacre of peaceful Algerian protesters in Paris.

Cultural Traces of a Massacre in Paris: The October 17, 1961 Anarchive is the first cultural history devoted to literary and visual representations of the police massacre of peaceful Algerian protesters. Covered up by the state and hidden from history, the events of October 17 have nonetheless never been fully erased. Indeed, as early as 1962, stories about the massacre began to find their way their way into novels, poetry, songs, film, visual art, and performance. This book is about these stories, the way they have been told, and their function as both documentary and aesthetic objects. Ident

This chapter is a sonic analysis of Caché as an important postcolonial statement, one that attempts to redress historical injustices by amplifying the buried truths, and the ongoing fallout, of France’s colonial legacy. More specifically, the chapter explains the sonic significance of the characters’ speech, silences, and failures to face truths and understand each other (represented by the aural motif of their saying “nothing”), especially in relation to the historically suppressed massacre of Algerians protesting for Independence in October 1961. The chapter also dwells on the film’s undenia

Police and gendarmes were more frequently involved in assisting army units in the extirpation of the Front de libération nationale (FLN) and Armée de libération nationale (ALN), which invariably included criminal actions such as torture and murder.

Abstract:

Abstract An examination of the civil conflict of the 1990s is essential to understanding Algerian politics of the past two decades. The conflict grew out of the formation of armed Islamist groups in the wake of the cancellation of elections and the banning of the FIS in 1992. It expanded massively in 1993 with the emergence of an extremist jihadi trend among the armed groups known as the GIA. The Algerian regime responded by expanding its forces and counter-terrorism operations and adopting more extreme measures against the armed groups including disappearances, torture, and the infiltration o

This chapter argues that the 8 May 1945 massacre is the direct impetus behind the 1954 Algerian revolution. It is a major game changer in the rapport between the Algerian intelligentsia and the Occident resulting in a political divorce, which engendered an important volume of literature that recorded the painful birth of a nation painfully tearing itself from the domination of another. Caught between the traumas of yesterday’s colonial night, and the uncertainties of tomorrow, the expression of these anxieties produced literary accounts of high value. Their themes varied from a narrative of al
