Förlagets beskrivning
Recent events in Algeria, notably the unanticipated electoral successes of the "Front Islamique du Salut" and subsequent army-backed coup, have redirected attention to the countries of the Maghreb - Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya - a complex and little understood part of the world. The essays in this volume address the history of and contemporary dilemmas faced by this region, and fall into four discrete groups, relating to the pre-colonial period, the colonial period, the time of the struggles for the achievement of independence, and the region today. The topics covered are: the pre-colonial period: corsairing in the economy and politics of North Africa; the impact of the French conquest of Algeria on Morocco (1830-1912); problems of interpretation of North African history. "The Colonial Period:" Colonial rule in this century to 1930 - the case of the Beni Mzab; Britain and Libya 1943-45; France and Islam; the Spanish Protectorate and the occupation of Tangier in 1940; "independent states" - the FLN; the role of Berber nationalists in political reform; the political role of Islam in Morocco (1970-1990); Libya and Morocco; and French colonial heritage and language policy
