The French Encounter with Africans
A classic study of the intellectual and social history of racist attitudes in France.
The Sudden Memory of Torture
From the beginning of the Algerian War, the central issue for most of its critics was the use of torture. When confronted with evidence of torture, French governments during the war claimed that it was the result of aberrant behavior by individual soldiers or police officers. Yet, it was used systematically. Beginning in 1955 every regiment of the French army had an interrogation officer attached to it whose job it was to gain information by all …

The Margins of City Life
Unlike most historians of France, who draw a sharp contrast between cities and the countryside, John Merriman focuses on the spatial and social margins of urban life, the faubourgs, or suburbs, where rural migrants and the labouring poor of the cities congregated in growing numbers in the first half of the nineteenth century. In the eyes of the urban elite, the women and men of the periphery resembled barbarians at the gates of civilization. The …

The Colonial Policy of the Popular Front
The accession to power of the Popular Front government in 1936 was greeted in the French empire with enthusiasm by many leaders of the non-European population overseas. Political leaders as different as Ho Chi Minh, Habib Bourguiba, and Ferhat Abbas viewed with optimism the possibility of cooperating with the French government and working for a liberalization of the French imperial structure.1 All three French political parties making up the Popu…

Malaria and French Imperialism
It has been argued that the conquest of disease, particularly malaria, preceded and facilitated the spread of the European empires in Africa. The French experience shows the contrary. Even into the twentieth century surprisingly little use was made of quinine; death rates from malaria remained high. Yet the French empire expanded steadily. As the empire expanded, more and more use was made of indigenous troops. Africans recruited within the conqu…
Imperial Identities
French Colonialism, 1871-1914. Myths and Realities
Legacy of Empire
The French ethnologist Germaine Tillion who valiantly opposed the brutal war in Algeria observed during the conflict that France and Algeria were complementary enemies. One hundred and thirty years of colonial rule had created bonds between the two which could not be broken.1 While many of the links have been loosened by independence, the former colonial relationship with Algeria continues to mark French life. The Algerian connection has affected…

The Lure of Empire
A revolutionary figure in Flaubert's Education sentimentale, frustrated by restrictions on liberty at home, exclaims, 'I feel like going off to live among the cannibals'. In the end he remains in France, but the readiness with which this remark was made is revealing. Throughout western thought the attraction of life among non-Europeans, among peoples thought to be primitive, has exercised a strange fascination. While the overseas areas had their …

West Africa under Colonial Rule
The Colonized as Child
The European imperial powers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries viewed their African and Asian subjects as children, as men not fully grown, whose destiny had to be guided by the presumably more advanced states of Europe. As a result European administrators consciously, or not, often extended overseas a system of rule which appears to have been patterned after the relationship of authority which existed in the metropole between parent and …
