| Summary: | "Phillip Naylor, one of the preeminent scholars of North Africa, published the first edition of this book with Florida in 2000, examining not so much the colonial history of France and Algeria (though he certainly covers that), but focusing on the 40 years after that and showing how during this so-called period of decolonialization France and Algeria remained intertwined with one another. Their colonial relationship was unique and remained so even after the transfer of power, continuing to transform and demonstrate both a tangible and intangible need for one another. Naylor has updated the book to draw in new information and sources while also continuing to study the ever-evolving relationship between the two countries in the 20 years since original publication. No other work has arisen to supplant his study of their postcolonial history, so this revised edition will still be a necessity for anyone studying Algeria and postcolonial relations in North Africa"-- |
